Bird Head No. 2, woodcut by Andrew Liu

From the early 80’s until 2013, the Parrott Gallery hosted an annual show of prints from the students of The Ontario College of Art and Design. These OCAD students created editions of small format work and would sell each piece for $39.00, hence the name “Gallery 39”.

Over the years, we have collected many pieces by the printmaking students and teachers for our collection.

The techniques range from silkscreen, etching and lithography to monoprint, aquatint and intaglio.
