Bertoia's Works on Paper

"I personally was trained as printmaker and have worked with many artists to produce editions. While printmaking can be very innovative, there is a certain level of control necessary to reproduce the same results," says Murphy. "I find it very interesting that Bertoia used printmaking, in a way, to lose control and allow himself to explore his senses."
