Reifel’s work concentrates primarily in the areas of the intaglio and relief print. His approach has ranged from traditional to experimental. Since the 1980’s, Reifel’s work has largely been concerned with combined-media prints resulting in varied editions, often comprised of unique prints.
Since the mid-1970s, Reifel’s work has been exhibited in approximately 235 exhibitions plus an estimated 75 traveling venues in the United States and abroad in twelve countries.
