Multiple Exposure and More at the Cleveland Print Room

Multiple Exposure Cleveland (MX), a program Cleveland Print Room is undertaking with the support of the Cleveland Foundation as part of their Arts Mastery Initiative, has been busy teaching Cleveland middle and high school students technical aspects of photography, helping them develop visual literacy and storytelling skills, and exposing them to the business of photography, including curating shows and marketing their work. A culminating exhibit of student work from the first semester of Multiple Exposure will be presented in CPR’s gallery alongside our annual members show this December.

This show, our Off the Wall Members Showcase exhibition, will be opening Friday, December 1. With the ArtCraft Studio Show running that weekend, our gallery will also be open both Saturday and Sunday, December 2–3.

January 2018 marks Cleveland Print Room’s fifth anniversary. We are excited to open our sixth year with an exhibition entitled Anthropocene. “Anthropocene” is the unofficially-named current epoch during which human activities have made a significant impact on the Earth’s ecosystem, and is based on the assumption that the environment is now altered by humans. The work included in this group exhibition references humans and their relationship with the natural world. Some of the work looks at the relationship between the environment and human rights issues. Artists Tom Laffay, Michael Loderstedt, and Oscar Palacio will be joined by more artists in coming months. CPR will also feature workshops and guest speakers on this theme throughout the duration of the exhibit.

Co-curated by Loop Tremont’s Kory Gasser and CPR’s Shari Wilkins, Spitball, opening March 2, features photographers age 30 and under.
