Sheila also did collaborative printing with Rauschenberg, Frankenthaler, Motherwell, Arakawa, Segal, Wegman, Shields, and many others. In 1990 she was honored with a 25 year master printers show at Rutgers Zimmerli Art Museum in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In January 1994, assisted by artist friends, Sheila developed a new monoprinting process utilizing the silk screen medium, yet enabling the artist to work directly on the silk using almost all of the drawing tools they are used to using on paper. Art on the Net is a collective of artists helping each other to come up on the Internet and share their works on the World Wide Web. Artists create and maintain studios and rooms in the gallery where they show their works and share about themselves.

Innocence and Experience deals principally with the shift in recent decades from a positive, hopeful vision of childhood’s purity and power to a counter-imagery of youth threatened or corrupted. The gallery exhibition includes works by Diane Arbus, Robert Gober, Mona Hatoum, and Mike Kelley. An accompanying film and video exhibition includes films and videos by Stan Brakhage, Joseph Cornell, Sadie Benning, Louis Malle, Satyajit Ray, and Arturo Ripstein. Matter investigates the new role of materials in fine arts and design, as well as its force in inspiring and guiding the creative process, by considering and connecting several distinct creative fields. Works by Joseph Beuys, Robert Morris, Gaetano Pesce, Mona Hatoum, Eva Hesse, designers Hella Jongerius and Tom Dixon, and photographer Vik Muniz are shown.

Once a wooden sculpture has been dehydrated cracks will appear, where even exposure to high relative humidity will not make the cracks close up entirely. However, conservators can fill the cracks with a variety of materials to create a unified visual impression. What should I ask for when matting and framing works of art on paper? Mat board should be made from 100% rag or lignin-free cellulose. Sometimes those labelled as "museum board" or "conservation board" are not of the highest quality. Alkaline buffered boards are not sufficient if the board contains wood pulp. Photographs should not be matted with alkaline buffered boards as some prints are adversely effected by alkalinity. Hinges are used to attach the work of art to the backboard of the mat. They should be made of Japanese paper, and should be adhered with wheat starch paste. Pressure sensitive adhesive tapes and pre-gummed tapes should not be used. Photographs are often attached to the mat with photo corners.
