Catalog description

Semester course; 6 studio hours. 4 credits. Prerequisites: ARTF 131 , ARTF 132 , ARTF 133 and ARTF 134 . An introduction to printmaking that explores the conceptual and material possibilities of the multiple. Students will engage with a selection of processes that may include relief, intaglio, lithography, screenprinting and digital methods to understand how the matrix—whether physical or digital—functions as both a technical and conceptual tool for transferring and reproducing images.
