All of the works on display come from Gonzaga\u2019s permanent collection and include screenprints, etchings, lithographs, and other prints.<\/p>\n<p>The scope of Gonzaga\u2019s collection is astounding and unfortunately not widely publicized; it includes over 4,500 pieces, most of them gifted by former Spokane residents Norman and Esther Bolker. The exhibition features works from the 16<sup>th<\/sup> through 21<sup>st<\/sup> centuries and includes a wide range of pieces that will appeal to many tastes. As part of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary celebration, the university is publishing an exhibition book that will be revealed to the public at the closing ceremony of the exhibit on April 1<sup>st<\/sup> at 10 am. Outside of this special event, the museum is open from 10 am to 4 pm and is always free and open to the public. Take advantage of the free admission and chance to witness some big names in art right here in Spokane.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re a writer, the exhibit might even provide you with fresh inspiration, as one of my professors has encouraged my creative non-fiction course to discover through the exploration of ekphrasis: a vivid description of a work of art where the writer expands the meaning through reflection and narration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Makayla Wamboldt To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the Jundt Art Museum at Gonzaga presents a special exhibition: Fifty Masterworks from the Print Collection.
