The Society of Wood Engravers’ annual exhibition features over 120 prints created by outstanding British and international printmakers working in the medium of wood engraving, woodcut and linocut. Presenting a diversity of subject-matter, visual style and personal expression, these prints all have in common the technique of relief printing; the oldest, most direct and exacting of printmaking techniques.

The prints in the exhibition are chosen by a jury of three engravers from an open submission process to which both members of the Society, those aspiring to membership and those new to relief printmaking may apply, with each print considered for inclusion on its own merits.

The exhibition travels to galleries around the UK, starting at Bankside Gallery on London’s South Bank and includes showings in Stroud, Suffolk, Perth, Yorkshire and The North Wall, Oxford.
