Boston Expressionist Jason Berger is lauded for his vivid, jubilant paintings of colorful motifs from around the globe. His printed work is a lesser known, but still important part of the artist’s oeuvre. Jason Berger Prints, a new online exhibition, explores the artist’s boldly graphic woodcuts.
Berger created his first woodcut in 1949. He chose this technique to ‘express ideas very clearly and in a simple, graphic way.’ It enabled him to personally engage in the step by step procedure of making woodcuts, beginning with the selection of materials and tools, and ending with the carving techniques, proofing and printing. According to Berger, ‘by using a simple method of printing, the printmaker could create without being too involved with complex techniques that in many cases become more important than the idea.’
Jason Berger Prints is available to view on our website April 2 through June 7, 2026.
