Pure Print
Classical Printmaking in Contemporary Art

Talks

– Self publishing in printmaking is a common practice. The artist is responsible for the entire process, from idea, to design, production and including distribution. Within this theme, artists will present an overview of their aesthetic intent; explain how techniques and processes employed serve their work, where they have concentrated their expertise, commitment and reverence for the print tradition. Such talks on the various processes employed by the artists will be held at exhibitions venues or lecture rooms and therefore will be providing general public insightful commentary on the subject of printmaking, transmitting the diverse conceptual and stylistic approaches. These presentations will also allow the public to visualize how artists explore the boundaries of print related methods as a means to question the mutability of print practice in the digital age.

Lectures can be presented in Portuguese, Spanish and English.
