THE ESTATE OF JOHN KENNETH ESLER
Exhibition Reception & Talks will be held Saturday June 4, 1-4
CKG is thrilled to be showcasing John K. Esler’s incredible inventory of prints from 1969 - 1995. Esler first explored printmaking in his home province of Manitoba before moving to Alberta where he became a key innovator of printmaking at both a local and national level. With a legacy spanning decades as an artist, educator and mentor to generations of printmakers, JK’s prints have been largely unseen since his passing in 2001. In collaboration with his estate, we are honoured to be sharing a selection of his serigraphs and etchings with the public, with a large-scale exhibition in the works for spring 2023.
