IMPACT 5 - REPRISE

I last wrote about the IMPACT show in October, and a lot has happened since then. We have been in fairly constant contact with the show organizers since then, and have additional information regarding the show.

At the 2005 conference the Estonian delegation (Loit Jõekalda, Eve Kask, Karin Laansoo, Vappu Thurlow) proposed to organize the 2007 IMPACT 5 show in Tallinn, at the same time as the 14th International Tallinn Print Triennial takes place. This is a great opportunity for printmakers from around the world to exchange ideas with their fellow printmakers.

The product fair is scheduled for Thursday October 18th, while seminars and otrher activities run from October 17th - 20th.

For additional information on the Impact 5 show, you should go to the show website at www.estograph.ee/impact/impact5. or contact us at sales@graphicchemical.com .

As a brief heads up, Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) is planning an Art Materials Expo and Lecture series in Savannah, GA on October 5-7th. SCAD is a private institution with over 7000 students from all 50 U.S. states and 80 foreign countries. Look for more information on this show as it becomes available.

Finally, the picture above.....it has absolutely nothing to do with IMPACT. I don't have any Estonian pictures (yet), so I chose this one, not because he looks Estonian, not because he was a great artist, but mostly because this guy woke up the morning of the picture, looked at himself in the mirror and thought that his hair was perfect! He is, a distant relative of mine whose likeness ended up in a family album, Little did he know that 150 years later some relative would be making fun of his hair. Hope to see you in Savannah or Tallinn in the Fall
