The
Printmaking Program utilizes up-to-date technologies alongside traditional
approaches. This program is designed to explore the traditional
techniques of the monoprint, collograph, etching, woodcut and linocut
processes. After the fundamentals are learned, students are encouraged
to approach printmaking in a variety of ways, which may include
the production of single or multiple prints, incorporation of text,
computer aided design, sculptural applications and use of handmade
paper. Bookmaking is a vital component of this program because it
offers the possibilities of integrating the printed image with text
and addresses numerous structural formats. Lectures and discussions
describing historic and contemporary art practices are provided
to support the student's studio work. |
