ARTS 230 Printmaking I

In this studio course students are exposed to a broad range of basic traditional and innovative printmaking techniques including block, etching, lithography, RISO and the use of these skills to produce independent work within the context of contemporary art and design. This course will include the use of Photoshop and Illustrator in the production of stencils. Students will be introduced to skills and techniques, experiment with the medium, and think creatively and critically. Studio instruction may be augmented with field trips, slide lectures, readings, critiques, and discussion that help critically, currently, and historically situate printmaking as a fine arts and design practice.
