Bruce Conner: Somebody Else's Prints spans nearly 60 years of work, from the first etchings and lithographs that Conner made while a student in Kansas in 1944 to his 2003 inkjet prints made with Photoshop at Magnolia Editions, Oakland, CA. Based in San Francisco, Conner is an internationally recognized artist who worked in numerous media, including found-object assemblage, for which he is best known. This exhibition is the first in-depth examination of his work as a printmaker and features rarely seen examples from the Conner Family Trust and private collections.
