About the Workshop
Letterpress is one of the oldest forms of printmaking and it is a versatile asset to the book artist in the production of editions, text, images, and more. This two day workshop provides an opportunity for participants to experiment with wood type on press, making source material that they will share on the second day. Participants will learn how to lock up their wood forms and print with multiple colors and formats. On the second day, they will draw from the pool of prints, abstracting the originals through a series of exercises and collage techniques to generate new relationships.
Participants will enjoy exploring the large collection of wood type at CBA and printing with it as both abstract pattern and readable language. They will experience the qualities of letterpress ink, in terms of overlapping colors and increasing transparency. Sharing their prints as a pool of source material, they will work with the prints of their peers as well as their own.
Required Materials:
- Pencil and paper for taking notes
- Please wear closed-toed shoes and clothes that can get stained or dirty (CBA will provide aprons, but the ink used on press can stain)
- (optional) on day two, participants may bring additional materials for collage
All other materials will be provided by Center for Book Arts at no additional cost.
