Derrière L'Étoile Studios

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Derrière L'Étoile Studios was founded in New York City in 1978 by master printmaker Maurice Sanchez. Sanchez trained at Tamarind Institute.[1] The studio specializes in a unique form of monoprinting, which allows for more than one impression to be created from the plate.[2]

Works from the studio are in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum ,[3] the National Gallery of Art,[4] and the Princeton University Art Museum.[5]

Artists associated with the Derrière L'Étoile Studios include Robert Cumming,[6] Donald Judd,[7][8] Eric Fischl,[9] Elizabeth Murray,[10][11] and Susan Rothenberg,[12]

From 2013 through 2014 the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University held a retrospective of their collection of Derrière L'Étoile Studios prints entitled Stars: Contemporary Prints by Derrière L’Étoile Studio. Part One featured prints from 1980 through the early 1990s.[13] Part Two featured prints from the 1990s.[14] Part Three featured prints from 2000 to 2014.[15]
