"A celebration of screenprints produced by 50ty/50ty in collaboration with local artists, illustrators and designers."   

The exhibition title has been taken from the screenprint of the same name by Alexia Vogel. Through a collection of meticulously crafted screenprints, we invite you to immerse yourself in a world of vivid colours, intricate patterns, and evocative imagery that encapsulates the joyous energy of the summer season. Join us as we embark on a visual journey, where every print unveils a story of warmth, nostalgia, and the timeless allure of summer's bliss.

50ty/50ty

Driven by a desire to see more affordable, high-quality, collectible artwork on the market, creators of Black River Studio, Wim and Jeanne Legrand, established 50ty/50ty: an online collection of limited-edition screenprints created in collaboration with local artists, illustrators, and designers. 

50ty/50ty allows local creatives to handprint high-quality fine art prints on archival paper. However, they maintain exclusivity through the limited editions of prints available: no more than 50 prints are produced. Wim utilizes his experience as a printmaker to work closely with each artist from initial concept through to final print, ensuring integrity of quality throughout the screen printing process.
