Wayne Kline and The Rolling Stone Press
10am - 5pm
WAYNE KLINE & THE ROLLING STONE PRESS is the first in a series of short-run, historical exhibits that present the history of contemporary art in Georgia and celebrates twenty years of Wayne Kline and the Rolling Stone Press. It featured works by contemporary artists from Georgia and across the southeast who were selected to work on the lithography press at Rolling Stone during its twenty years of operation. It also exhibited the work of Wayne Kline, founder of the press and artist working in the medium of lithographic printmaking.
Rolling Stone Press is a lithography print atelier run by master Tamarind printer Wayne Kline. Observing traditions developed over the past two hundred years, Kline has been inviting artists to work on the press since 1984. Artists who have made prints at Rolling Stone include Benny Andrews, Linda Armstrong, Genevieve Arnold, Beverly Buchanan, William Christenberry, Herbert Creecy, Reverend Howard Finster, Cheryl Goldsleger, Ruth Laxson, Lynn Marshall Linnemeier, Cornel Rubino, and Barbara Schreiber.
Lithographs created at the press are in a number of permanent collections including The Bauhaus Archiv State Museum, Berlin, Germany; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; The High Museum of Art, Atlanta, Georgia; The Birmingham Museum of Art, Birmingham, Alabama; The Telfair Museum of Art, Savannah, Georgia; and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia.
