A lithograph titled “North Dakota Slant” also was accepted into the exhibition. This year, 180 artists submitted works from around the world with a total of 552 works for consideration. Kapplinger’s work was among 56 selected for the exhibition by juror Michael Barnes, a printmaker and professor at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb.

As Best of Show recipient, Kapplinger will receive a solo exhibition next year with an accompanying honorarium, plus the selected work will become part of the Center’s permanent collection.
