Atelier 6000, 389 S.W. Scalehouse Court, Suite 120 in Bend, opens a new exhibit, “Mandy Livingston, Retrospective," with a reception from 5:30 to 8 tonight in its Old Mill space. The show comprises color viscosity etchings that Livingston, one of A6's earliest advocates, created at Atelier 17 in Paris in the late 1970s.
Founded by Stanley Hayter in Paris prior to World War II, Atelier 17 moved to New York City during the war years, then back to Paris. During her tenure there, Livingston took in Hayter's teaching, which included the direct development of viscosity printing, a method that incorporates principles of relief printing and intaglio printing and is revered by contemporary artists today.
The exhibit closes Oct. 31. Artists will be at the studio during the exhibition hours.
