High Pressure NOW – XYLON Germany Triennial

With its new triennial, held every three years, XYLON Deutschland aims to do nothing less than take stock of the contemporary state of letterpress printing. This long-established association has been based in Reutlingen since 1997 and is committed to promoting the diversity of letterpress printing and its vibrant presence today.

Hochdruck NOW brings together 44 artistic perspectives. XYLON members proposed additional artists for the exhibition; a jury selected the participants from the submitted works. Thus, established and newer, familiar and surprising perspectives come together – and these names reveal a multifaceted picture of contemporary letterpress printing:

Lisa Alameddin, Philip Angermaier, Anna Arnskötter, Benjamin Badock, Franca Bartholomäi, Nina Joanna Bergold, Eleonora Damme, Benjamin Dittrich, Christine Ebersbach, Inessa Emmer, Katharina Fischborn, Wolfgang Folmer, Eberhard Freudenreich, Johanna Lee Glover, Cornelia Groß, Bettina van Haaren, Bettina Haller, Sebastian Harwardt, Philipp Hennevogl, Karin Heyltjes, Mathias Hornung, Jan Kolata, Andrey Kolesnikoff, Bodo Korsig, Jan Kromke, Andrea Lange, Volker Lehnert, Jonas Liesaus, Dieter Mammel, Anastasiya Nesterova, Franziska Neubert, Klaus Olbert, Hartmut Piniek, Anja Ritzmann, Lisa Rother, Monika Schaber, Lothar Seruset, Tina Stolt, Johannes Strugalla, Ellen Sturm, Verena Wald, Julia Weißflog, Deborah Ziller, two in print: Christine Pohlmann and Suki Meyer-Landrut.
