Matthew Marks Gallery will host "Vija Celmins: Prints 1983 to 1985," an exhibition showcasing the artist's printmaking work created between these years. The presentation will run from May 1 to June 27, 2026, at the gallery's 526 West 22nd Street space.

The exhibition will feature a range of prints, employing techniques such as engraving, drypoint, woodcut, mezzotint, and aquatint.
