Black Luminaries for Black History Month

In celebration of Black History Month, Lincoln Center Editions would like to honor the Black luminaries who have graciously contributed to its’ publishing program since 1996. Over the years, each artist was commissioned to create a limited edition of benefit prints in support of Lincoln Center’s cultural programming. Many of these editions have sold-out, which is a testament to their gravitas in the canon of art.

Most recently, the brilliant Rico Gatson created an image, Untitled (Collective Light Power) to commemorate Summer for the City, Lincoln Center’s annual free summer festival. A limited edition of signed prints was published for collectors and the design community as well as complimentary posters for festival attendees.
