Photogravure Four Day Workshop

$1,700.00

During this four day intensive photogravure workshop, we dive into the intricacies of the medium. Participants start with a suite of ten pre-made plates and get going right away the first day with a variety of gravure printmaking techniques. Attendees get a chance to create a second batch of plates part way through the workshop reacting to their already-printed images. This helps establish best practices when imaging for low-contrast mediums like gravure.

This workshop delves into the complexities of the medium: multi plate printing, Chiné-Colle, À la poupée, and a variety of papers. This workshop gives attendees a chance to broaden their experience level as well as learn best practices from a professional studio. As a print-focused workshop, the intention is to leave with a decent amount of prints. It is not a tech centered workshop but more about traditional printmaking techniques applied to the unique digital gravure plates we create at Prints on Paper. Techniques and knowledge learned during the workshop allow participants to flourish in their art practice.
