Hibrida III - Eurografik - A Cultural Bridge Across Europe
Crowds flocked to Hibrida III - a trilogy of shows held in spring 2008, all expertly curated by Colin Lloyd from Bradford School of Arts & Media, to form a regional festival of print and contemporary art. The exhibitions explored the crossovers between new and traditional printmaking practices and media.
The Yorkshire Craft Centre and Cartwright Hall hosted Eurografik - A Cultural Bridge Across Europe, held across both venues between 14th April to 9th May 2008 and jointly curated by Teresa Soliman from the International Print Triennial Society, Krakow. This major exhibition by young and established artist/printmakers showcased contemporary printmaking from Poland and Britain.
