New Boy on the Block!

I took and posted these photographs of our meeting yesterday and am taking advantage of the blog to introduce myself.

My name is don braisby – I'm the new boy on the project from Wales. some of my work can be seen at:

Update December:

With regard to the exhibition in the Graphic Studio in Dublin, contrary to what is written on an earlier blog, the exhibition is scheduled for next March (2009). Also the number of prints per person has been reduced.

The Graphic Studio Board wish to view jpegs of finished prints mid-January. We suggest that each artist submits two prints influenced by the collaboration, as well as two prints from each collaborating pair of artists. If we have about 14 artists altogether that would be 28 individual prints and in theory 14 'collaborative' prints. That would be a total of 42 prints. This will allow room for those with and without partners to participate. We can fine-tune later and also change the guidelines for other exhibitions,

I hope this is the first of many posts from the Irish collaborators!

We now have some information on the next stage of the project which is an exhibition to be held in the Graphic Studio in Dublin next March, (specific dates to be confirmed)

The Graphic Studio committee of Brian Lalor, Catherine O'Riordan and Robert Russell, request that the images of finished work are sent to them in jpeg format on a cd by the 3rd week in January.

There can be as many images as each artist wants from which the committee will select the required number. All work must be print and must be influenced by the collaboration. It has been suggested that we aim to have an edition of at least 6 although monoprints have not been ruled out. The size is not an issue. The Graphic take 48% which needs to be factored in when pricing.

The issue of framing has yet to be decided.

At this stage it may be an idea for 'twins'/collaborators to link up and discuss the prints for this exhibition and decide whether they will be individual or joint prints.
