Westminster College’s Foster Art Gallery will host Hot-n-Ready: A Print Portfolio Exchange, an art exhibition organized by artists Nathan Pietrykowski and Robyn Wall. The exhibit runs from Oct. 23-Dec. 8., and there will be a gallery reception on Thursday, Nov. 2 beginning at 4:30 p.m.

The exhibition features the work of 23 artists with additional pieces by Pietrykowski and Wall. The theme of the portfolio exchange involved using an 11-inch medium size pizza box as a parameter on which the artists were encouraged to create a print about how they stay motivated through tedious tasks in their studio practices or daily obligations.

“There are a range of traditional printmaking techniques used: intaglio, etching, lithography and screenprinting,” explained Summer Zickefoose, assistant professor of fine art at Westminster. “Including a large number of artists allows us to see the multiple ways a single theme can be interpreted."

The Foster Art Gallery is located in Patterson Hall and is open on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
