The
Avocet Portfolio was initiated in 1985 to make space for the collaborative
process of artists, produce vivid fine art screen
prints in small editions, and to further the development of non-toxic
printmaking.
Jolie Stahl
and I invited a few of our favorite artists from the infamous NYC group
COLAB/ Collaborative Projects, Inc. and the wider art community. It was
a volatile mix in a beautiful landscape. We combined private and public
support to build a historically interesting production model for group
work.
In the interim, portfolio artists have
made more multiples, led fascinating lives, acquired international
fame, received prestigious awards, and
made contributions in leadership and cultural activism.

above to see the results of our efforts and to learn
more about the artists.
