Making an Impression: Pioneering Latin American Printmakers presents a multigenerational group of four artists who have redefined the possibilities of printmaking through material and perceptual innovation. Bringing together works that expand the medium beyond the flat page, the exhibition highlights printmaking as a site of experimentation that explores the relationship between image, surface, and space.

This temporary installation pairs the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art’s recent acquisitions with works that have long been part of the permanent collection. The relationships between them vary: some share approaches to material, form, or process, while others reveal resonances in subject matter or artistic concerns. Rather than suggesting direct lines of influence, these pairings invite visitors to consider the narrative possibilities that emerge when works created in different contexts are brought into dialogue.

Collection, Reframed is the Bechtler’s annual summer series inviting contemporary artists to reinterpret the museum’s collection. In this iteration, Jiha Moon explores representations of women across time. Bringing together works by artists such as Alberto Giacometti, Gina Gilmour, Meret Oppenheim, and Walasse Ting, the exhibition examines themes of visibility and concealment, agency and identity. Featuring Moon’s work as well, Collection, Reframed fosters dialogue between historical and contemporary voices and invites visitors to encounter the museum’s collection through a new lens.
