Zygote Press, 1410 East 30th St., Cleveland 216.621.2900  www.zygotepress.com  Thursday 3/10 @ 6PM.  Fri 3/11 @ 6-9PM
At its core, printmaking is the craft of disseminating fine art. And for decades, the Northeast Ohio scene was spotty at best. That is until the cooperative, fine art printmaking workshop Zygote Press started up in 1996.  Soon its organizers discovered what began as a zygote of an idea was warmly embraced by an arts community starving for a collective vision where artists were encouraged to produce fine art prints. Today, this nonprofit is an epicenter of creative expression for printmakers and artists in its E 30th St. location, as well as throughout Cleveland neighborhoods.  Zygote Press celebrates its 20th anniversary with the “Lovin’ Spoonful” fundraiser taking place Thu 3/10 at Tastebuds Restaurant next door to its workshop, as well as with retrospective exhibition ReUNITE, which opens a day later and features artworks by Christi Birchfield, Reverend Albert Wagner, Laurence Channing and Audra Skoudas.  (Image Above)

Transformer Station 1460 W.29th Street, Cleveland, www.transformerstation.org “Unfixed.”  Opening 2PM.  Unfixed, the current exhibit at the Transformer Station, celebrates every photographer’s and photo collector’s nightmare: the fading and disappearance of the photographic image. The show features works that are deliberately unstable, creating an object that changes over time, engaging ideas of the passage of time, mortality and memory. Some were made specifically for this show which runs through Sun 4/3.  Want to know more about what these images and objects are trying to convey? Dr. Kate Albers, an art professor at the University of Arizona, will give a lecture at the Transformer Station on “The Ephemeral Photograph: From Salt Prints to Snapchat.” It’s free.
