An Evolving Archive
Enter the Archive
Stanley Kaplan (1925–2015) made woodcuts, linocuts, etchings, murals, and artist's books rooted in humanity and social justice. This archive, curated by his son Rob, is still growing.
Image Quality 🧐
Most images were photographed by Stan for personal documentation rather than reproduction — quality varies, and that's part of the archive's character.
