Celebrate Halloween with the “spooky, scary, and supernatural” virtual exhibition Trick or Treat, curated by Lamar Dodd School of Art students and Georgia Museum of Art fall 2022 art education interns Andrew East and Catie Cook. Displayed earlier this month at the museum as a pop-up for a brief four-hour period, the fruits of East and Cook’s labor are now visible online through the museum’s virtual gallery!

Eugene Carrière (French, 1849 – 1906), “Head,” from “L’Estampe Originale,” 1893 – 95. Lithograph on wove paper. Georgia Museum of Art, University of Georgia; Gift of the University of Georgia Foundation. GMOA 1972.2810.

Carrière’s print comes from “L’Estampe Originale,” a periodical that united the most influential printmakers of late-twentieth-century Paris. It also helped to foster technological developments in the art of printmaking. The title, meaning “the original print,” supports the argument that printmaking is a legitimate and innovative discipline. Carrière’s lithograph process instills a ghostly quality in this image. The figure is a fleeting mystery as she dissipates into the background. Is the head materializing before your eyes or dematerializing into the mist?
