“What If I Try This?”: Helen Frankenthaler in the 20th-Century Print Ecosystem

“What If I Try This?” explores how Helen Frankenthaler, the noted 20th-century abstract artist, collaborated with printmakers in print studios and workshops throughout her long career. By focusing on her works on paper, this exhibition considers how printshops are key nodes within the printmaking ecosystems, or sites where artists and printers simultaneously championed technical innovations and created community.

This project is generously supported by the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation. It celebrates the 10 prints and 1 set of process proofs that the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation gifted Syracuse University in the second round of the Frankenthaler Prints Initiative.
