Printmaking
The emphasis of the printmaking program is geared toward interdisciplinary uses of print media in contemporary art and cultural dialogue. Students are challenged to develop their concepts and experiment with physical forms of art through engaging balance of traditional and innovative printmaking.
Students explore multiple possibilities in each concentrated discipline and are encouraged to push their creative ability and find their own voice and style in the art-making process through the printmaking studio and intensive critique practice. Not only do students explore conventional technique, they also are introduced to more contemporary practices such as photo, digital media and installation.
