While working with the many processes of printmaking, students will engage with the printed image while considering the historic aspects of the techniques involved in the production of a print. This course is an introduction to the following areas of printmaking: relief (woodcuts and linocuts), intaglio (etching), and lithography. Students will learn the basics of each area through, collaborations and hands-on short workshops. Context is discussed and explored through demonstrations, readings, image presentations, and visits to local galleries, community prints-shops, and museums with a range of print-media.
