Christiane Baumgartner, who has achieved international critical acclaim for her printmaking, is best known for woodcuts based on stills taken from her own films and photography.

Lakeside presents works spanning Baumgartner’s career, including earlier subjects of urban scenes, and more recent prints concerned with the movement and play of light across the horizons of land and sea.

The artist carves her woodcuts, some monumental in scale, by hand, which can take up to several months, before printing an edition in her studio. Her work is held in collections including the British Museum, London, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the National Gallery of Victoria, Australia.
