During his forty-year career, master lithographer Fred Genis (1934 – 2022) worked in the United States, Europe, and Australia, collaborating with leading artists from around the world. His working life spanned monumental eras in the 20th Century art including the American Abstract Expressionist movement of 1960s and 70s New York. The Grafton Regional Gallery presents a major retrospective exhibition titled "Fred Genis: A Printer's Proof," curated by Professor Pedram Khosronejad, demonstrating the measure of Genis’s success through the presentation of original lithographs by forty-four artists from across three continents
In this episode, along with comments from Tim Storrier, Hendrick Kolenberg and Gallery Director Sarah Gurich, Professor Khosronejad speaks with Tim Stackpool about the Genis legacy, and discusses the community's understanding of the art of lithography, the contribution of migrant artists, and contemporary visual art in Australia and beyond. The exhibition runs from 11 May until 7 July 2024. A transcript of the conversation in this episode is available HERE with thanks to the Grafton Regional Gallery.
