Elin Rødseth's Woodcuts Featured at Art on Paper Fair During New York's Armory Week

Now in its second year, Art on Paper provides a vibrant and inclusive experience during New York's Armory Week fairs. This event adopts a broad perspective on graphic arts, categorizing pieces based on their paper medium and encompassing printmaking, book arts, drawings, paper sculptures, and photography. This inclusive ethos harks back to the historical label of printmaking as The Democratic Art. Featured by Owen James Gallery is Elin Rødseth's "Wayfarers" (2015), a collection of nine color woodcuts enhanced with hand-pressed monotype elements, each measuring 11 7/8 x 15 inches in an edition of five. Rødseth's grid art situates contemporary figures in a snowy, surreal environment reminiscent of Delft tiles and social media exploration. The fair's organizers prioritize diversity and accessibility in their curated selection of paper artworks.
