The Washington Printmakers Gallery (WPG) and the Dadian Gallery of the Henry Luce III Center for the Arts and Religion at Wesley Theological Seminary announce Seeing God, a nationally juried exhibition of fine prints. We invite printmakers to consider what it means to them to see God, whether in their studios, in the natural world, on the street, or in any other place. We are interested in how contemporary artists of varying religious backgrounds envision the sacred in their work, or encounter the holy through their work. Jurors will include Pauline Jakobsberg, Trudi Ludwig, Margaret Adams Parker, Kirk Waldroff, and Ellen Winkler, all artists and members of WPG; and Deborah Sokolove, Curator of the Dadian Gallery.

Jurors:
Margaret Adams Parker, Kirk Waldroff, Trudi J. Ludwig, Ellen V. Winkler, Deborah Sokolove and Pauline Jakobsberg
