PORTFOLIO: Artists Work in Series

June 15, 2012 - August 19, 2012

While the Faulconer Gallery exhibits national and international artists who work in all media—from painting to video to found-object installation—the Grinnell College Art Collection is comprised primarily of works on paper. This exhibition features print and photography portfolios drawn entirely from the College’s ever-expanding Collection, many of which have not been exhibited before. Featured artists include Edward Burtynsky, Tacita Dean, Glenn Ligon, Catherine Opie, Shahzia Sikander, Kiki Smith, and Kara Walker.
