Julie Mehretu working on a copper plate for Epigraph, Damascus at Borch Editions in Copenhagen, 2015.

Julie Mehretu’s processes and practice are located within a fascinating complexity of influences and networks. In this article for Imprint magazine, the Australian Print Council’s quarterly publication, I wrote about Mehretu’s recent exhibition at Palazzo Grassi in Venice.

Titled ‘Ensemble’, the exhibition was a survey that spanned twenty-five years of Mehretu’s practice, shown alongside the work of Nairy Baghramian, Huma Bhabha, Tacita Dean, David Hammons, Robin Cost Lewis, Paul Pfeiffer and Jessica Rankin.
