North Dakota Printmakers
Through support from the UND Meyers Foundations, the UND Alumni Association, and the UND Department of Art and Design, an invitational print exchange was organized for North Dakota printmakers and artists. The Touched and Untouched invitational exchange gathered the wonderful print talent of the area, shared it not only with each other, but is sharing it with the entire region through a sponsorship by the North Dakota Art Gallery Association with support from the North Dakota Council on the Arts.

Each artist represented in the collection created an edition of their own prints, which were then dispersed to each of the other artists, as well as the University of North Dakota Art Collections.

The prints range in media from traditional lithography to photo silkscreen and beyond. Some artists incorporated other mediums, and some used digital technology to assist in their print. However, all work is hand-pulled specifically for the exchange.

The Touched and Untouched exchange includes 16 artists from all parts of North Dakota, including 9 UND Alumni (two of whom will be graduating in May) and 2 UND professors. The artists include University of North Dakota Alumni: Linda Olson, Linda Whitney, Eric Johnson, Anna Jacobson, Sue Morrissey, Ryan Stander, Rebecca Sefcovic Uglem, Jessica Christy and Michelle Lindblom; University of North Dakota Professor/Professor Emeritus: Brian Paulsen and Kim Fink; other artists: Kent Kapplinger, Punchgut Studio, Sue Fink, Laura Youngbird and Heidi Goldberg.
