ON/OFF THE WALL

The Mansion at Kimball Jenkins
June 20 – August 15, 2025

Kimball Jenkins proudly presents ON/OFF THE WALL, a bold and immersive exhibition celebrating the breadth and innovation of contemporary printmaking across New England. This marks our first collaborative show with Pillar Gallery + Projects, brought to life within our historic Mansion.

ON/OFF THE WALL showcases printmaking artists who defy convention – working across a dynamic range of mediums and scales, from intimate prints to expansive installations. Audiences will encounter works rooted in traditional methods like serigraphy, relief printing, monotypes, and etching, alongside inventive new approaches that expand the very definition of the medium. Expect sculptural prints, three-dimensional pieces, and large-scale works that blur the lines between print, installation, and fine art.

ON/OFF THE WALL thematically explores geometric abstraction, natural forms, and shifting perspectives, inviting viewers to engage with printmaking in unexpected ways. Through this thoughtful curation, the exhibition reflects the evolving dialogue between artists and their environment, pushing the medium forward into new realms of expression.

This exhibition supports and uplifts the growing printmaking studio at Kimball Jenkins Estate and celebrates the ingenuity of regional artists who are redefining what it means to work on and off the wall.

Works by ten printmakers across the Northeast including: 

  • Annie Silverman
  • Mary Mead
  • William Mitchell
  • Rachel Gross
  • Chris Beneman
  • Anne McMillan
  • Aric Russom
  • Lynn Newcomb
  • Andrew Heath  
  • Mike Smoot
