Crown Point Press announces the release of new etchings by Odili Donald Odita, who worked at the press during the fall of 2022. During the two-week project the artist explored intaglio for the first time, and completed 15 color etchings. Odita was born in 1966 in Enugu, Nigeria. He immigrated with his family to Columbus, Ohio in the late 1960s. Odita’s early experience as a Nigerian emigre in suburban America created a duality that informs all his art. Odita uses the juxtaposition and repetition of color and pattern as elements to unify space in his paintings and wall installations.
