"The Machine Stops (or Inkjet My Foot!)" features the work of contemporary lithographers. This is a limited edition print portfolio inspired by E.M. Forster’s 1909 short story, “The Machine Stops.” In the story Forster describes a human existence that is completely dependent on technology. Using Forster’s prescient masterpiece as a point of reference, the portfolio explores relationships between humanity and the technological world that is increasingly encompassing it. It showcases traditional hand lithography as a central medium while incorporating other such processes that accommodate the theme. The portfolio was organized by UA professor Andrew Polk and Kathryn Polk. Museum Hours: Tuesday – Friday 9 am – 5 pm, Saturday and Sunday Noon – 4 pm. Closed Mondays and University Holidays Admission: $5 Adults. Free: Children, Museum members, UA, faculty, staff and students Call or visit the Museum's website at: artmuseum.Arizona.edu.
