Mark Dion’s printmaking practice forms an essential thread through his broader inquiry into natural history, institutional knowledge, and the human compulsion to classify the world. Though perhaps overshadowed by his large-scale installations — the elaborate Wunderkammern, reconstructed specimen cabinets, and theatrical archaeological digs — his works on paper reveal the conceptual foundations of his art with particular clarity.
