The Print Center ANNUAL is one of the most prestigious and oldest juried competitions in the United States. The 96th ANNUAL features works by 35 of the finest international artists currently using photography or printmaking as critical components in their work.
The 96th ANNUAL was juried by Ana Casas Broda, artist, educator, editor and co-director of Hydra + Fotografía and Dr. Kelli Morgan, independent curator, social justice activist and Professor and Director of Curatorial Studies, Tufts University. Broda and Morgan reviewed over 2,600 images and videos submitted by 537 artists. Submissions came from 46 states and 30 countries across the globe. We are pleased to present an online exhibition of portfolios from the 10 Finalists and 25 Semifinalists.
