Thomas Cvikota leads a tour of the editioned works from his personal collection on view in What is an edition, anyway?, many of which were part of the 2018 exhibition of the same name at Mana Contemporary Chicago co-curated by Cvikota and Susan Tallman. Prints, books, posters, artists’ ephemera, and vinyl records highlight longstanding traditions in edition-based practices.
McEvoy Arts’ free Gallery Sessions invite artists and curators to explore and contemplate their works on view with visitors in an intimate setting.
Takes place during the 2019 San Francisco Art Book Fair.
