SUMMARY:Art Exhibit | Wilson College\, Chambersburg
DESCRIPTION:Thursday September 18th\, 2025 – Friday November 7th\, 2025\nWilson College Shares Letterpress Printing in New Art Exhibit\nWilson College will present an exhibition of work by artist Amos Paul Kennedy Jr. in the Bogigian Gallery\, Lortz Hall\, from September 18th through November 7th\, 2025.\nThe College will host an opening reception starting at 4:30 PM on September 18th.\nTitled “Amos Paul Kennedy Jr.: Citizen Printer\,” the exhibition showcases Kennedy’s dynamic approach to letterpress printing\, blending traditional techniques with contemporary design sensibilities.\nKnown for his bold\, layered compositions and distinctive typographic style\, Kennedy’s work invites viewers to engage with language\, color\, and form in fresh and thought-provoking ways.\nWorking with handset wood and metal type\, Kennedy emphasizes the physical labor and tactile beauty of the traditional printing process.\nHis method of overprinting vibrant colors in dense\, rhythmic layers results in visually striking pieces that allow chance and repetition to become part of the message.\nNo two prints are ever the same as each carries its own visual weight and emotional resonance.\nThe Library of Congress\, Emory University\, and the Newberry Library\, among others\, house Kennedy’s work\, which is recognized for its combination of wit\, insight\, and craftsmanship.\nThis exhibition celebrates letterpress printing as a medium of artistic dialogue and cultural expression.\nThe title “Citizen Printer” is based on a recent book about Kennedy\, published in 2024 by Letterform Archive Books\, San Francisco.
