A monkey mountain kronikle

Duane Reed Gallery in St. Louis is hosting a return exhibition of American printmaker Tom Huck, known for his large-scale satirical woodcuts. Huck, who works from his studio Evil Prints in Park Hills, Missouri, draws inspiration from Northern Renaissance masters like Albrecht Dürer, as well as José Guadalupe Posada, Honoré Daumier, and William Hogarth. His intricate carving and cross-hatching technique creates works that blend festive celebration with social criticism, which he describes as "rural satire" based on life in small-town southeast Missouri.
