Each year an artist is commissioned to make an original artwork for the E|AB Fairs annual, limited-edition print. We are thrilled that DANA SCHUTZ will be creating this years edition. Actively working in the print medium since her graduation from Columbia in 2002, Dana has already made extraordinary contributions and is a great example of the energy that young artists bring to the field. Earlier publications include editions by Barbara Kruger, Marcel Dzama, Richard Tuttle and Fred Tomaselli. Published in an edition of 25, these prints have become coveted and sought-after collectors item. The image will also appear on the covers of the E|AB catalogue to be distributed FREE at the Fair.
