New UK and Czech Printmaking

Hibrida II is a twin exhibition of contemporary printmaking opening simultaneously in the two major historical industrial cities of Bradford and Brno, Czech Republic. The exhibition in Bradford is at Cartwright Hall and the Bradford Gallery, and in Brno at the University Gallery. Hibrida II features new printmaking from across the UK and the Czech Republic, as well as work produced by artists who have a special connection with Bradford and Brno.

As the title of the show suggests, the focus of the work in Hibrida II is a fusion of new and old, tame and wild, materiality and content, time and place. The twin shows open at the same time and contain the same selection of work from both countries. The venues will be utilised as a platform to launch a series of publications, debates and events which will inform and underpin the on-going critical development of the subsequent Hibrida exhibitions to be shown in Britain and the countries that have recently joined the new European Union.
