DU-GOOD
An exhibition with printmaker and artist Leslie Diuguid at Subliminal Projects
“I’ve been a printmaker long before people considered me an ‘artist,’ and my entire practice is founded on the skills that I learned refining the process. I think Leslie Diuguid’s talent in this space is one to be celebrated, and seeing her process and command of the craft is inspiring. I can’t see a better fit for Subliminal Projects. Leslie is an important member of the art and printmaking community, and I hope we can all help to support her in opening her storefront print shop in Brooklyn!”
Shepard Fairey
Subliminal Projects is pleased to present DU-GOOD, an exhibition with printmaker and artist Leslie Diuguid, founder of Du-Good Press, the first and only Black Female-owned Fine Art Printshop in New York City. As a true craftswoman in her field, Diuguid has distinguished herself with the unique ability to work with artists and take their vision to print with remarkable skill and detail. The exhibition aims to pull the curtain back between the viewer and the world of art fabrication by showcasing a comprehensive retrospective of over 70 prints made by Diuguid, with esteemed institutions and artists such as Barry McGee, Hassan Rahim, and Dominique Fung. In conjunction with the opening of the exhibition, Subliminal Projects and Du-Good Press will release a limited series of new prints with artists Shepard Fairey, Emma Kohlmann, Justin Hager, and B. Anele.
“The curation of DU-GOOD represents my journey of creating a space for myself and artists in my network to thrive. I aim to create an ethical model of production based on reciprocity, collaboration, and mutual respect. Quality is primary, but so is the need to operate at all levels in harmony.”
