Magnolia Editions (aka Magnolia Tapestry Project and Magnolia Press) is a fine art studio in Oakland, California. For over two decades we have worked closely with artists to produce and publish fine art projects, including unique artist's prints, works on paper and textile pieces, artist books and public art. Our current projects include: an ongoing series of tapestry portraits created by Chuck Close, translated from daguerreotype and polaroid images; tapestry editions by Deborah Oropallo, based on images from her series of hybrid portraits entitled Guise; a portfolio of inkjet prints by Hung Liu, housed in a custom cloth-covered box with slipcase and featuring a new book on her latest work; a portfolio of inkjet prints by Doug Hall, juxtaposing portraits of individuals and locations from around the globe; and The 20 Year Drypoint Project, a series of mixed media pieces created on a drypoint pulled off the 38 x 84 inch cutting board used at Magnolia over the last 20 years. So far, artists participating include William Wiley, Ed Moses, Squeak Carnwath, Robert Hudson, David Best, William Allen, Hung Liu, Andrea Way, Rupert Garcia, George Miyasaki, and Kim Anno. Other ongoing projects include a suite of ink-jet prints by Guy Diehl and Ralph Goings, mixed-media collagraphs from George Miyasaki, and limited edition archival Fine Art Buttons by William Wiley. As part of the Magnolia Tapestry Project, we are currently working on tapestries with Ed Moses, Eric Fischl, April Gornik, Doug Hall, Deborah Oropallo, Squeak Carnwath, Chuck Close, Guy Diehl, Donald and Era Farnsworth, Gus Heinze, Hung Liu, and William Wiley. Magnolia recently acquired a Gunnar 3000 automated cutting machine and has begun incorporating custom mat cutting, book art and book box construction, and other Gunnar applications into its fine art projects.
