We are delighted to announce the release of Jim Hodges’ new limited edition print, a co-publication by Highpoint Editions and the Walker Art Center. Winter Speaks is a beautiful etching with chine-collé and an overlay of hand-cut screenprinted gampi, in an edition of 28. This is the first of four prints that Hodges will make with Highpoint. Buyers of Winter Speaks will be given the first opportunity to purchase the subsequent prints when they are released. “With this new piece, Jim has really extended his exploration of the materiality of paper. His unique collaboration with Cole Rogers, Artistic Director and Master Printer at Highpoint, has resulted in a layered, experimental work. The imagery is evocative of a winter landscape — a familiar sight to Jim on his many visits to Minnesota — as well as his unique language of abstraction. What perhaps may not translate in the attached photograph is just how complex and dimensional Jim’s rendering is here through the medium of printmaking!”
