The Americas Biennial Exhibition introduces the public to contemporary prints from around the world. It also serves to support the collection of works within The Americas Biennial Exhibition research archive while making them available for academic research, museums, artists, and print students. All works submitted to The Americas Biennial Exhibition will be retained within The Americas Biennial Exhibition Archive for research and educational purposes. Additionally, works retained within the archive will also be used to promote a greater awareness of the uniqueness and beauty of the print and related print media.
