Introducing Anthony Corraro next year’s Printmaking Artist-in-Residence

Anthony is a printmaker based in Wichita, KS, and will be graduating with his MFA from Wichita State University in May. By utilizing the repeatable process of printmaking alongside ephemeral materials, the prints he produces are often fragile and immediately ephemeral. Through this process of creation and decay, he seeks to challenge the general notion of art being a static experience.

 In 2015, Anthony earned his BFA from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK. During the same year, he discovered a love for printmaking when he interned at Universal Limited Art Editions located in Bay Shore, NY. Afterwards, he spent much of his time in the Midwest working in art centers, working with local artists, and exhibiting work in several group shows.
