The Print Club has given the Art Center an image from the edition of its 2016 commissioned print. Glenn Brown’s etching, The Artist’s Father, 2016, is a signature example of the artist’s working process. Brown’s art is steeped in Western pictorial traditions, such as portraiture. The reproductions of paintings or drawings in art history books, magazines, and the Internet are the origins of Brown’s imagery. Source: Jan Feb Mar 2017 News
