Black Church Print Studio celebrates the launch of Print Network Ireland with an exhibition titled NETWORK, curated by independent curator Sara Dowling.

NETWORK explores connections to environment and architecture and examines interpersonal relationships, encouraging conversation and interactivity. It showcases a diverse collection of print and expanded print media. This exhibition includes various media including intaglio, photo-etching, screenprint, installation, video and projection.

For the past four decades, Black Church Print Studio has provided support for professional artists and practicing printmakers. Innovation and the inclusion of emerging media are founding principles of the studio. It strives to maintain and develop contemporary printmaking in Ireland. This year Black Church Print Studio along with Cork Printmakers, Graphic Studio Dublin and Limerick Printmakers established Print Network Ireland. The ambition of Print Network Ireland is to formally connect professional print studios under a single identity to become the voice for professional printmakers and artists using print in Ireland. To coincide with this establishment of Print Network Ireland, Black Church Print Studio invited Sara Dowling to curate a show titled NETWORK which features artists from all four founding studios.
