2024 was a big year for COLLABORATIVE PRINTMAKING -- specifically with the three big projects listed above. I chronicled all this on the BUCKET EXHIBITONS blog:
BIG INK -- Lyell Castonguay and Carand Burnet -- came to Albuquerque on April 13th and 14th, to make big prints, as part of the MAKING HISSTORY 2024 tour. Our BUCKET EXHIBITIONS team -- of Henry Morales, Ellie Weadock, Virgil Velasco -- made a collaborative print together:

The team in Henry Morales' studio wanted to collaborate again after the BIG INK project. So five of us at the April 23rd drawing session -- Henry Morales, Ellie Weadock, Virgil Velasco, Casandra Encinias and Karl Whitaker -- carved our drawings into linoleum and printed them together on one sheet of rice paper:
All this print collaboration culminated in our biggest project -- the EXQUISISTE TESSELLATION Print project -- a more detailed explanation on the BUCKET EXHIBITIONS blog:
We ended the year with our first EXQUISITE TESSELLATION exhibition, at Remarque Print Workshop in Albuquerque:

CIRCLE MAGIC
PRINTS
With the 4 inch diameter circles, we made "street taco" sized prints on a TORTILLA PRESS, from AI images engraved into linoleum by a laser cutter. Then OffCenter ARTS collaborated by pressing one of their Pink Pearl eraser images, in yellow, on top of our porcupine print:
ELIZA LUTZ took the two-part circle linocuts a step further, with a variation on the "EXQUISITE CORPSE" -- by constructing four chimera variations, simply by turning the inside circle 90 degrees before printing:
PAVEL ACEVEDO
PAVEL ACEVEDO electrified the printmakers when he came to town to direct a relief printmaking workshop at the University of New Mexico. Previously we had worked with Pavel almost a decade ago in the Desert Triangle Print Carpeta:

The HERSTORY collective wheat-pasted prints in Santa Fe on April 20th, 2024, the theme was WOMAN of the RAILS:
BOBBIE FULTZ of Santa Fe donated a lot of printmaking materials to us -- but more importantly, told me of her four big ANTI-UTOPIA Print collaborative books:
