Link & Pin is excited to host PrintAustin’s 2023 5X5 exhibition, one of the print organization’s annual juried shows. Starting in 2021 as an online exhibit, the concept was to have artists judged on all five of the works submitted, with five artists chosen to display work, hence the name 5x5. Artists drawn to submit to this call have at least five pieces of work that can be presented together and stand out enough to be chosen among all the entries. 

Artists chosen for the 5X5 exhibition will receive bonus features, including an extended artist feature by PrintAustin and an opportunity to participate in additional programs such as IGTV, Zoom conference, podcast, or panel discussion related to their work or studio practice. For more information on these bonus features, please visit printaustin.org. 

Artists:

Myles Calvert, Julia Curran, Mehdi Darvishi, Enrique Figuerdo, and Timothy Pauszek
