The fall semester wrapped up really well for the printmaking community. During our final critique, there were a lot of good comments in response to 'which piece from this semester do you feel is your strongest and why?' I thought it was a good and revealing dialogue. This was the beginning class, who also printed over 600 impressions for our group project, a 2014 Calendar. I was sorry that it did not get accepted into the student exhibit because I think we were all pretty proud of that collaboration.</div>

From the beginning class, Christina, Ashley, Katie White, and Tre (2) all had prints accepted into the student exhibit. The advanced group of acceptances are Chasson, Rebecca (2), and Alex. Alex also had his work accepted into an exhibition at the Mellwood Art Center in Louisville that will open in January.</div>

Friday night was the opening of the Graduating BFA seniors at the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft. The exhibit looked great with each of the disciplines in our program represented. Besides the 'printed' impressions on glass, paper, acetate, and contact paper, Alex also presented a performance with a follow-up installation. He started the performance with a sort of grungy attitude and appearance and finished looking like "Clark Kent", as one audience member described him. He received a nice round of applause.</div>

One the last day of the beginning class, Maho created 'Bonbons', with six of them having a strong resemblance to me, or maybe it was my imagination. They were very sweet and she was very sweet for bringing us treats. </div>

Our 2014 Collaborative Calendar. Eventually printed with a red cover and back page, and black and white month and colophon pages. Almost thirty more have been ordered which will keep Donna, Amelia, Katy, and Alex busy over the holiday break. They are using the calendar to raise funds for travel to the SGCI conference in San Francisco.</div>

Alex continues his investigations of making via his body, clothed and unclothed, covered with graphite, oils, printing inks, dry pigments, and in the case above, silkscreen drawing fluid. After spreading the fluid over his torso, he pressed his body against a screen for eventual printing. Although the resulting impression was not what he expected, very flat and lacking detail, he will revisit the process with some adjustments in the risks he takes. Alex says, "<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">For an artist to take risks, I feel that they
must step out of what they know and feel they have an understanding for, and move
into a realm of emptiness and infinite possibility</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18px;">."</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Alex presented a solar plate demonstration for my beginning class on Tuesday evening. Rather than working with a traditional transparency, he created a mylar pocket that was filled with string, hair, clear contact paper with graphite offset, and other odds and ends. He placed the mylar pocket on the exposure unit glasstop and then taped the plate on top of that. The plate was then exposed three times, and in between each exposure, he carefully lifted the plate and added more string into the pocket. </div>

The impression shows all of the subtleties of the accumulated materials that were added to Alex's transparency pocket. His experiment resulted in a beautiful print. He'll continue investigating some quiet surface rolls on subsequent impressions. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 5.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<i><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">Compiled by Highpoint Center for Printmaking</span></i><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">Printmaking has shaped culture in all parts of
the world. Originally used as a form of communication, printmaking is now
valued as an artistic medium with unique technical qualities. To make a print,
the artist typically creates an image on a surface made out of metal, stone,
wood, or other materials; the surface is then inked, and pressed onto paper to
create an original print. By repeating the printing process, the artist is able
to create multiple original works of art.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 11.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">Printmaking has its roots in prehistoric times,
when humans placed their hands on cave walls and blew pulverized pigment around
them to create images. In approximately 500 BC, Sumerians carved images on
cylinder seals that could be pressed into wet clay, thereby creating multiple
imprints to indicate the ownership of goods. Chinese scholars created rubbings
from carved texts around 200 AD, an early form of printing that could be done
on paper and silk.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 11.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">The invention of paper set the stage for
printmaking throughout the world, because paper was affordable and well-suited
to printing. As papermaking knowledge spread from China to the rest of Asia,
the Middle East, and Europe, printmaking became more widespread and
technologically sophisticated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 11.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">Printmaking initially flourished as a form of communication,
for it enabled artists to make multiples that could be disseminated to a large
number of people. Starting in the eighth century, Japanese artists used
printmaking to make multiple editions of Buddhist manuscripts. In fourteenth
century Europe, woodcut prints became a popular way to distribute Christian
images to the common people. In the fifteenth century, Gutenberg’s printed
Bible ushered in a whole new era of literacy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 11.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">From the Renaissance onward, individual artists
became known for their spectacular use of printmaking. Albrecht Dürer dazzled
fifteenth century audiences with the exquisite detail and consummate
craftsmanship of his paintings, woodblock prints, and engravings. Two centuries
later, Rembrandt’s mastery of the intaglio medium enabled him to create an
influential group of over three hundred printmaking plates. About the same
time, Japanese artists such as Katsushika Hokusai took the art of woodblock
printing to new heights. Over time, the “toolbox” of printmaking techniques
expanded to include etching, mezzotint, and eventually lithography, silkscreen,
and monoprint. As processes became more complex, more artists began to work in

<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">The late nineteenth century saw the rise of the
artist-printmaker in Europe and the United States. Whether working
independently or collaboratively with Master Printers, these artist-printmakers
helped to firmly establish their medium within the artistic canon. Seminal
figures within the nineteenth century include Turner, Whistler, Blake, Degas,
Cassatt, and Goya. Artist-printmakers in the first half of the twentieth
century include legends such as Chagall, Matisse, Munch, Picasso, Miro, Arp,
Ernst, Dali, Kollwitz, Beckmann, Barlach, Kandinsky, Klee, Hopper, and more.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 11.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">In the same time period, artists all over the
world carried printmaking to new heights. Japanese artists, for example, worked
within the established tradition of ukiyo-e printmaking to create lumious
woodblock prints depicting scenes from mythology and everyday life. In Mexico,
artists such as José Posada flocked to printmaking for its graphic beauty and
potential to effect social change. The famous Mexican Taller de Gráfica Popular
(Workshop for Popular Graphics) provided access and inspiration for an entire
generation of artists.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Verdana;">Contemporary artists continue to use printmaking
for its unique visual qualities. As today’s artist-printmakers work with
time-honored hand processes, often in communal printmaking workshops that
foster collaboration and innovation, they build on the rich traditions of their
artistic forebears.</span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Trebuchet MS";"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

Alex is body-stamping on curved sheets of glass and contact paper; Angie is looking at photoploymer plates for both intaglio and relief; Chasson started with intaglio and plans to move into monotypes and possibly relief; Emily is printing relief and then pasting the images around town, and Rebecca is getting her feet back into the process after a two year hiatus, starting with intaglio. Here are their beginnings:<br />

We started the learning process with three-color separation monotypes, getting everyone acclimated to the shop, the press, and the idea of building imagery with layers. There were some strong responses to the process and some engaging explorations into color, texture, line, and value. Some examples:<br />

Oscar has decided to incorporate two more plates into his engraving, so he is back home in Peroria completing the mezzotints that will carry the lush colors (looking forward to the Oscar Red). He'll return on December 1 and 2 for a print-a-thon in the shop with the usual band of Rolling Knob Press printers. We're all pretty excited about that. We learned so much while he was here, so everyone is working on engravings and mezzotint collagraphs to keep the momentum going. Thanks, Oscar, and we'll see you in a few weeks.brian h. joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17010643686952897817noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704520266715338734.post-85843091253799956562012-11-15T07:56:00.001-08:002012-11-15T08:47:28.912-08:00Oscar Gillespie's Visit<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Oscar has been working in the shop all week, cutting away on a large zinc plate that's polished to a jeweler's perfection. He's also taugh</span>t my students how to engrave and many are cutting away on their plates. Yesterday he presented his work and influences to about 50 students and faculty. It's been a busy week so far.<br />

Oscar is preparing copper plates to so that color can be added to the engraving he's been working on. The proof below is where the plate was yesterday afternoon, but there has been a lot more cutting since then so I suspect that it's much more lush with Oscar's distinctive line work.</div>

Engraving is the practice of incising a design on to a hard, usually flat surface, by cutting grooves into it. The result may provide an intaglio printing plate line work for printing images on paper as prints; these images are called engravings.<br />
<br />
Engraving was a historically important method of producing images on paper, both in artistic printmaking, and also for commercial reproductions and illustrations for books and magazines. Partly because of the difficulty of learning the technique, is much less common in printmaking today. However, traditional engraving, by hand with a burin, continues to be practised by goldsmiths, glass engravers, gunsmiths, and Oscar Gillespie!<br />

The works below are examples of Oscar Gillespie's print work that he has shown to numerous students and faculty during his visit. These are only a few of the many prints he brought with him to share. </div>

This engraving with aquatint (maybe even some mezzotint) has the intense "Oscar-Red" that adds a very unique quality to his work.</div>

The above reductive relief print was a demonstration impression that Oscar created for his students. I was glad that he brought it with him as my beginning students are currently working on relief prints, so seeing other possibilities other than simply black and white was good for them to experience.</div>

This is one of a series of circular engravings created by Oscar, the fluidity of the line work is amazing.</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Night In</span> by David Dreisbach</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">David Dreisbach recently celebrated his 90th birthday. For those of you unfamiliar with Dreisbach's work, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">he has been an exhibiting artist since 1949 and an educator from 1952 to 1991. He studied with Mauricio Lasansky and Stanley William Hayter. He has exhibited in over 250 one man shows and a very large number of national and international juried and invitational exhibitions and workshops.</span></span><br />
<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">David has a lifetime of artistic endeavors and is well respected as an educator who instilled strong artistic commitments in a large impressive group of students. He is an internationaly known expert and innovator in the printmaking field who helped to create technical advances in color viscosity printing.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Joy Peterson of Louisville is the sister of David. She wanted to honor David's 90th birthday by awarding a 'scholarship' gift to a deserving student in printmaking. Joy contacted me for recommendations. I told her that I had several deserving students, but I suspected that since it was to honor her brother that one who had a strong background in etching would be a good match for Joy's intentions. I recommended Wende for this honor and Joy was very excited about that selection. I sent some of Wende's images to her, but I am also going to include some her and invite Joy to visit our blog. Please extend a congratulations to Wende, and enjoy some of her intaglio prints.</span></div>

Wende is a senior in the Fine Arts Program and will be graduating in the spring with a BFA in Printmaking. Her work explores nature and it's patterns and those influences on our world, both subtle and overt. She is currently involved with the tradition of creating "quilts", but rather than employing fabric, Wende is composing her quilts out of printed images from etchings and collagraphs. They will function as objects rather that the traditional utilitarian bed cover. Wende is also very involved with vegetable papyrus, creating wall hangings, bowls, and most prominently, hats.</div>

Besides hitting on the usual kinds of things that printmakers like to talk about - process - we got into some of the motivations that inspired creative investigations. I think it is highly important that such exchanges encourage a thorough grounding in the broad range of traditional, contemporary, and innovative printmaking techniques. It also encourages everyone to formulate and articulate philosophical and personal concepts and to move them into the visual. Although we have a relaxed studio environment, we also have an intensive studio experience with critical and theoretical dialogue, and that was very present yesterday. I appreciate the candor of dialogue. The goal of helping one another was healthy and constructive.<br />
<br />
I hope some of the suggestions that were offered are thoroughly considered, especially in regard to context. Who are you as an artists and why do you do the things you do? Who else might be doing something similar and why are they doing it? Is there a difference between art and craft and how does it relate to the art and craft of printmaking? What about the traditions of your work and how does it relate to the contemporary?<br />
<br />
Fear was an unexpected topic, and that evolved into some intense exchanges. Creativity and fear are strange bed fellows, so to say, with fear being the destructive counterpart. In fact, fear is perhaps the biggest block to creativity. Fear of making mistakes, of being criticized, of disturbing traditions and making changes, of losing the security of habit. It can go on and on. A change of focus will surely help alleviate such anxieties.<br />
<br />
Looking forward to the continued exchanges, both formally and informally.

Each is exploring a different theme that they will develop and evolve through the different processes they will be exploring during the semester.

The old guard is exploring some new approaches to their work this semester and some of the results are pretty interesting. Alex has a box of broken glass that resemble diamonds, and, of course, I'm always a sucker for things that sparkle. He's placing them directly onto the exposure unit and then placing a photopolymer plate on top. The results are beautiful surfaces of texture that he will continue to explore and incorporate into other images, possible linking that with some of his body impressions.<br />

Anna is working on some new ideas by creating textural surfaces that she will be cutting and mounting onto various sized wooden cubes. The image above was created by applying gesso to a canvas board and marking into the surface while it was wet. Some of that inspiration may come from the work of Yaacov Agam, where the artwork can be touched, moved, and manipulated by the viewer. It will be a challenging process.</div>

Chasson also went back in time to a project from his drawing class, building a figure from the skeleton and adding layers of muscle and tissue. He wasn't as happy with the print as he was the drawing, but then that is one of the corners we find ourselves in when we try to retranslate an image from one medium to another.</div>

Last evening the beginning group discussed the first monotype project, and I have to say that it was one of the most productive discussions at this level that I've experienced in some time. Most everyone contributed critical feedback to the work we were viewing. Very sound recommendations were offered regarding the process and ways to utilize it to strengthen the work. There were healthy disagreements as well. Some of the images, though executed competently, suffered from drawing issues. those individuals will want to spend more time trying to resolve future images before they are committed to the printmaking process we happen to be exploring at the time, and current work is always going to be stronger that pulling out drawings from a few years ago. We will discuss some thematic options on Thursday so that future work is current and relevant to the artist.</div>

Lexi's image of a woman bearing a pail of water raised some interesting discussion regarding it's content, possibly referencing several stories and myths.</div>

That's a long time since the last posting. I had taken a hiatus from this blog due to the inactivity. I was a bit tired of only communicating with myself and responding to my own posts. But some interest has been expressed to resurrect INTAYLO, contribute more posts and include more images from the two groups of printmakers. I'm hopeful we'll have more online discussions/critiques.<br />
<br />
There's a beginning and advanced group. The advanced group has already been working pretty steadily so I have a few images to share from those efforts. The beginning group in in the midst of the three color separation monotype process, so after this evening, there'll be some images to share from those efforts.<br />
<br />
The advanced group is already very involved in their new work. I've changed some things around this semester hoping to make the printshop a more collaborative, interactive, and innovative arena. We started the semester with some collaborative projects, teaming up small groups of two to create prints from nontraditional matricies. There are some pretty interesting results that I hope will fuel further investigations. I teamed up with Dani, and we layered several kinds of surfaces, such as a screen door guard, shower mat, carpenter's square, stamps, and a few floor mats.<br />
<br />
Wende and Anna created a layered impressions from shelf liners, doilies, and twine. They offset those impressions onto a sheet of sheer paper and then waxed it to hang over the original impressions, creating a veil of color and texture.<br />
<br />
Alex and Stasha inked up a sheet of mylar, placed it on a sheet of paper and placed it under a car. They then drove back and forth over it. The remaining image on the mylar was then printed onto another sheet of paper.<br />
<br />
Laura and Emily printed a flat of yellow, then inked up string and printed it in layers over the surface, with each layer getting more and more vague. They finished with a layer of transparent magenta that has Saran wrap textures impressed in the surface.<br />
<br />

Each of these collaborative experimentations examined less conventional approaches to creating images through a printmaking sensibility. There was ink and pressure and layers and paper. Aside from the work each individual will be exploring and discussing throughout the semester, we will also continue to push for more innovation through collaborative efforts and critical dialogue.brian h. joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17010643686952897817noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704520266715338734.post-10385900006401149272011-09-16T10:49:00.000-07:002011-09-16T11:15:05.013-07:00New Printmakers<div>The images below are the first three-color separation monotypes by all the new printmakers. A pretty exciting bunch of prints. We've had discussions about each one and suggested the things they might try to make their messages stronger. With the knowledge they gained by this first effort, and from watching others execute their processes, their second effort will be even more exciting. Everyone is developing a theme through their work this semester, so how each one grows in concept and process will be fun to see.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwYPy-ShHw6f4wo3-4yFbLOnQVAIlLTdj2s9CgrPBhCWV30ZV9gf0RG49yaq5K7e3HZI-v5WnLnGjhBh52rmBLVnMUAW_RgO3fhdaROGZBdOEIWj4UQBHDDUxJ_lP_hDinMKdLKF1ejAha/s1600/BrittanyL1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block;

<br />On Teusday, the first day of class, besides detailing the usual first-day-of-class kind of stuff, we also created a Trace or Touch Print. As folks arrived in the studio they were sent over to a black rectangle that had been gridded off and instructed to do a quick self portrait within each of the frames and to include their names at the bottom of each section. The result is the first image above, a fun composite of those who were there on the first day.<div>
<br /></div><div>Today we discussed themes and concepts that would drive the explorations into Intaglio, Relief, Monotype, and Collagraph, and then we created a collaborative three color separation monotype (second image above). Three groups worked on three inked sheets of mylar, one yellow, one cyan, and one magenta. By creating this collaborative print, everyone became familiar with the inks, the paper, and the press. One of the advantages also of pulling this impression was to realize that the process colors do not yield the same secondary colors as the primary colors do. Instead of green, orange, and violet, the process colors result in red, green, and blue. </div><div>
<br /></div><div>Each of the three groups explored different approaches to reducing the field of color with marks using stamps, textured materials, solvents, plastics, etc. The result was pretty cool for a 15 person 90 minute collaboration. </div>brian h. joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17010643686952897817noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704520266715338734.post-49189914144341517562011-08-31T08:12:00.000-07:002011-08-31T08:22:45.170-07:00First Full day of class, 09/01/11<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit0IvjEoTyrDvr5K7Yelepr82MHXFHz6QW9Bw1TrO6T8WB_s7Syn8vSvqDHQquPP_9SnviZzwvKbrymT7y9UrpMqm1Y15c3eXLgl-Wraz4DeZHA9dFfC3niv7DzrwmQIFKkv2HiDaKMQoh/s1600/anna+crop.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 322px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit0IvjEoTyrDvr5K7Yelepr82MHXFHz6QW9Bw1TrO6T8WB_s7Syn8vSvqDHQquPP_9SnviZzwvKbrymT7y9UrpMqm1Y15c3eXLgl-Wraz4DeZHA9dFfC3niv7DzrwmQIFKkv2HiDaKMQoh/s400/anna+crop.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5647040036171197042" /></a>
<br />Looking forward to discussing ideas and themes with the new printmakers tomorrow. we're also going to do a collaborative monotype so that everyone will be prepared to execute their own image. The monotype above is from last spring's class. Anna Loos created this print based on her theme of home. She carried that theme throughout the semester creating some interesting images in intaglio and relief.<div>
<br /></div><div>See you in the morning.

There has been a lot of activity in the shop getting it transformed from a paper-making studio back into a printmaking studio. Wende, in particular, has done a Herculean job with that transformation. There were some really beautiful things created this summer with the paper makers, and I know that energy will continue as we explore intaglio and relief during this fall semester. I have not posted a syllabus yet because it's still under construction, although there aren't that many changes, I've simply been dragging my feet a little through the final remnants of summer. So we'll all have a fresh look at what's in store during our first gathering tomorrow. See you in the shop bright and early with the coffee pot perking!brian h. joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17010643686952897817noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704520266715338734.post-76968288889875167522011-05-10T07:41:00.000-07:002011-05-10T08:01:58.792-07:00Spring Printmaking: we're done.<div>Below is the colophon for the Self-Portraits exchange portfolio created by the afternoon printmaking class.
