Owner of Flat File Print Shop Amanda Burk is hosting a pop-up group exhibition at tiny ATH gallery. Not long after receiving her MFA in printmaking at UGA’s Lamar Dodd School of Art, Burk opened and ran Double Dutch Press for several years in Normaltown with co-owner Katherine McGuire. Her goal when opening Flat File in 2022 was to provide the community with a way to learn printmaking, while also offering various printmaking services, studio space and equipment. Burk has also collaborated with other printmakers to create prints that she sells in her shop. She hopes to create a space that promotes community and love for art among her students and buyers instead of a sense of competition. The pop-up exhibition will be a group show spotlighting people who have taken classes, booked studio time or collaborated with Burk to make prints using the techniques of relief, screen print and etching.
