The entire month of June, we will be featuring an exhibition of experimental works by Robin Price. The exhibit will feature drawings, paintings, hand-printing, and other vibrantly-colored mixed media works on paper, and will be displayed amid a meandering “rainbow river” wall installation.

Robin Price heavily employs cyanotype printing. The technique is an alternative, hand-coated photographic process from the 19th century that produces a deep greenish-blue color when the chemistry is exposed to UV light. Price extends / amplifies the cyanotype process by combining additional media, such as letterpress printing, gouache, colored pencil, and collage.

Robin Price is an artist, editor, designer, letterpress printer & publisher, creating artists’ books since 1984. “A chameleon among book artists,” she has a long history of collaborating with others, with extensive diversity in content and form. Her limited edition press books, prints, and unique work are collected and exhibited internationally. Robin established her press in the Los Angeles area in 1984, under the imprint Lavender Armadillo Press, later revised to Robin Price, Printer & Publisher. Since 1995, the press has been located in an historic textile mill in Middletown, Connecticut, producing work with a team of assistants, apprentices, and interns over the years
