The
Danish grafisk vaerksted \ NAESTVED The Print Studio for Artists -
celebrates its 20 years anniversary in 2008 by arranging
Naestved

purpose is in the first hand to introduce the Danish public to contemporary miniature
prints from around the world while in the second hand to enlarge the collection of works
within the grafisk vaerksted / NAESTVED and Naestved Kommune (Naestved Municipal County)
and making the archives available for academic research, museums, artists, and print
students alike. The works within this research archives can never be
sold.

invvited artists are asked to submit up to 3 different prints. All print media /

use the prints for other exhibitions etc.

size of the print matrix/substrate does not exceed 20 x 20 cm. (this
maximum size includes both image and border areas). The original prints must be matted
with plain white matt board. The outside dimensions for the matting must be 20 x 20 cm. for both the
