Egazini Outreach Project at Burling Gallery

Exhibition: Tue Nov 4 – Fri Dec 19; Burling Print & Drawing Study Room

Linocuts by artists in the South African Egazini Outreach Project will be on display at Burling Print & Drawing Study Room through mid-December.

The Egazini Outreach Project in Grahamstown, South Africa, operates in a facility once occupied by apartheid riot police that has been transformed into studio space for local artists and crafters.

The 28 linocuts by Egazini artists on display tell stories of everyday life: struggles for equality and justice, work, and leisure activities in the new South Africa.

The prints are exhibited at Grinnell College, Nov. 4 – Dec. 19, courtesy of Sragow Gallery in New York City.

Burling Gallery hours for the linocuts exhibit are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. The gallery is located in the lower level of Burling Library at 1111 6th Ave. on the Grinnell College campus.
