This new show, hanging at MetroHealth Hospital (for location info click here), is meant to complement the Women in Print Exhibition currently on view at the Cleveland Museum of Art that highlights the work of female printmakers. For our exhibition, we are featuring prints by 8 women that currently work at Zygote Press. In the past, printmaking was often considered too technically difficult and physically demanding for women to undertake. In the mid-twentieth century, that attitude began to change, as women were increasingly allowed access to printmaking spaces traditionally reserved for men. Zygote Press was founded in 1996 by two women, Liz Maugans and Bellamy Printz, and has always been a safe haven for all printmakers. While the work of these women varies in subject, technique, and style, they all have benefited from the welcoming collaborative environment at Zygote Press.
