'Major center of graphic arts'

“Squibble A’’ (aquatint and etching), by Joe Moore, in the show “Selections From Mixit Print Studio,’’ at Brickbottom Artists Association, Somerville, Mass., Dec. 5-Jan. 11.

The gallery says:

“Over time Mixit Print Studio {in Somerville} has made its mark on the Greater Boston scene, and sponsored artists from other regions of the US, and abroad.” Sinclair Hitchings, former keeper of prints at the Boston Public Library, wrote in the catalog for our 25th anniversary exhibition: “The world at large does not know—but many American graphic artists do know—that Greater Boston is a major center of graphic arts production. It is this level of skill and sophistication which artists bring to Mixit Print Studio. Thousands of prints by hundreds of area artists have rolled through the presses of Mixit Print Studio.”
