The Brodsky Center for Innovative Editions (formerly Rutgers Center for Innovative Print and Paper) is an internationally renowned magnet for acclaimed artists who are invited to create two- and three-dimensional editions in print and/or handmade paper in collaboration with the Center’s master printers and master papermakers. Education and diversity are central to the mission of the Brodsky Center, and the Center has consistently supported artists who make challenging work.
Since its inception in 1986, over 300 artists, including: Jo Baer, Will Barnet, Chakaia Booker, Willie Cole, Spencer Finch, Leon Golub, Mona Hatoum, William Kentridge, Glenn Ligon, Kerry James Marshall, Chris Ofili, Faith Ringgold, Kiki Smith, Joan Snyder, Mickalene Thomas, Richard Tuttle, and Fred Wilson have collaborated with the Brodsky Center’s master printers and master papermakers on editions that are, without question, innovative in every sense of the word. El Anatsui and Lynda Benglis are both, at present and amongst others, engaged in collaborations at the Brodsky Center and, later this year, Dan Colen will begin a new collaboration at the Center.
The editions that the Brodsky Center has published are widely sought, and are included in the collections of: Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Cleveland Museum of Art; Baltimore Museum of Art; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; The Newark Museum; Victoria & Albert Museum, London; Bibliothèque nationale de France, Paris; Stadtmuseum Berlin; Australian National Gallery, Canberra; and other international institutions, as well as many private collections. The Brodsky Center has also produced editions in consortium with other noted institutions, including: Benefit Print Project, New York; College Art Association, New York; Creative Time, New York; Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, New York; Musée du Louvre, Paris; Market Theater, Johannesburg; Momenta Art, Brooklyn; Print Club of New York; and Rivington Place, London, to name only a few.
