Photostory: ‘Life in Print’

Same eyes, different minds.

Curated by Bevin Bradley and Michelle Jacques and organized by Remai Modern, Life In Print brings together collections of two incredibly inventive artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. The artists being Pablo Picasso’s Remai Modern Collection and William Kentridge’s Universal Archive. 

Besides their common interest in integrating printmaking as a medium and including recurring iconography in their works, their talent and trust in raw creative vision, experimentation, and collaboration for linocuts also matches. And this exhibit presents these remarkable parallels between the two artists. 

This is not the first time that Picasso’s and Kentridge’s works have been exhibited side by side. Life in Print is a novel and seemingly fated outlook into the world of imagination and printmaking.

Life in Print is on at the Arts Gallery of Alberta until October 5. Tickets are free for students.
