The aim of the David Krut Workshop is to provide a professional facility for collaborations between South African artists and local and international printmakers. Emerging and established artists are regularly invited to create limited edition intaglio prints and monotypes in the space.
Be on the lookout for exhibitions by Maja Maljevic, Diane Victor (at DKP Cape Town), Endale Desalegn (visiting artist from Ethiopia) and Quentin Williams (in July).
