This course is dedicated to experimentation with different engraving techniques and the production of multiples. Students learn the basic techniques of linocut, woodcut, color woodcut, intaglio (drypoint on acetate and copper and etching on copper) and monotype. Based on their personal research, students design a project using the techniques available in the engraving workshop. They engrave the matrix (the form used for printing), prepare the ink and paper, and print by hand and with a press.
The course provides an opportunity to experiment with printmaking techniques, both in terms of printing media (paper, textiles) and the multiple possibilities they offer in the various stages of production.
all materials required for the exercises are provided
