Breakdown Printing
Author: Claire Benn
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780955164903
Category : Dyes and dyeing
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book explores a method of silkscreen printing which involves applying thick dye paints or print paste directly on to the back of the screen, allowing it to dry, and then printing off with more dye paint or print paste. In this way the print medium is gradually dissolving the dried on dye on the screen, breaking it down to print an evolving array of colours, marks and textures, and producing interesting distressed, organic and disintegrating effects.

The American Dream

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A deep dive into American printmaking from 1960 to the present day The American Dream: pop to the present, published to accompany an exhibition at the British Museum, presents an overview of the development of American printmaking since 1960, paying particular attention to such key figures as Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, and Ed Ruscha as well as Louise Bourgeois, Kara Walker, and Julie Mehretu. With more than 200 key works by nearly seventy artists, this fully illustrated publication traces the creative momentum in American printmaking over the past six decades—from the moment pop art burst onto the New York and West Coast scenes in the early 1960s, the rise of minimalism, conceptual art, and photorealism in the 1970s, to the different responses of artists working today. Using innovative techniques and appealing to a wide audience, American printmaking was the ideal medium to express the USA’s power and influence, and to highlight contentious issues such as race, AIDS, and feminism.

A History of Screen Printing
Author: Guido Lengwiler
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780944094747
Category : Printing machinery and supplies
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A History of Screen Printing How an Art Evolved into an Industry, the book chronicles the rapid advancements in the ancient art of stenciling that took place during the late 1800s, and how it turned into screen printing as we know it today. With help from the families of the pioneers, industry supporters and over 15 years of research, author Guido Lengwiler has rescued an almost lost history that covers the period up to and including WWII. It tells the interconnected stories of how a relatively small group of people, many of them artists, signwriters, and entrepreneurs working in the dawn of the advertising age in the USA, helped create entire industries that continue to exist globally today, all using screen printing in the production of an unbelievably wide range of products. It includes beautiful full color illustrations from the Selectasine Booklet provided to original patent licensees, and the main vehicle that spread the process around the world. Hundreds of never before seen product photos, machine designs, and some of the first art prints done in the 1920 s in California are included, plus special chapters on fine art printmaking, along with the ceramic and textile industries. Screen printing was a hybrid process that provided both graphic and manufacturing advantages over other methods, and was perfect for the times. Industry, especially in the USA, was transitioning from hand craft into mass production, creating a need to decorate products, or advertise them with signage. Most times a closely guarded industrial secret, screen printing bridged gaps between hand production and the more expensive automated printing of the time, which included lithography and letterpress. It introduced cheap short run color capabilities, and virtually created the whole Point of Purchase (POP) and Specialty Advertising industries, along with the billboard and t-shirt printing sectors. An ability to print directly on a wide variety of materials led to use decorating metal, ceramics, textiles, and plastics, spurring record growth, better designs, and lowered costs in any industry that adopted it, from fashion to fine china. Experiments prior to WWII led to printed circuits, which in turn revolutionized the electronics industries. All these and more are legacies of the pioneers of screen printing featured in the book. The history of the process is really the history of so many things we take for granted in today s and tomorrow s society.

Screenprinting
Author: Print Club London
Publisher: Princeton Architectural Press
ISBN: 9781616896553
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Although the technique of screen printing dates back to first-century China, it became the preferred printing method of choice for musical and political counterculture movements of the 1960s, thanks to its ease, cost, and flexibility. It moved into the mainstream with Andy Warhol's iconic screen print of Marilyn Monroe, and was quickly adopted by artists such as Roy Lichtenstein and Robert Rauschenberg. Screen printing has become even more widespread with the many demonstrations, marches, and grassroots protests in the wake of the American presidential election of 2016. Screen Printing: The Ultimate Studio Guide is a definitive, fully illustrated manual on the techniques, materials, and processes of screen printing. An essential and highly practical reference, this book is equally suited for beginning and experienced printers, with step-by-step tutorials on basic and advanced techniques, as well as "workshops" by several of the world's best-known screen printers, including Ben Eine and Bob Gill.

Printmaking

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
All of the artists included in Printmaking are 'self-published' in that they print their own images in editions of fewer than fifty impressions or they execute works that are one-of-a-kind in nature. In every case, the artist is responsible for the entire process -- from conceptualisation to design, production, and eventual distribution. Each chapter presents an overview of the artists' lives, a statement about their aesthetic intent, an explanation of the techniques used in their work, and black and white as well as colour reproductions of their prints. In all cases, the artists have exhibited a strong expertise, commitment, and a reverence for the print tradition. Various processes employed by the artists, such as lithography, intaglio, paper-making, silkscreen, and collagraphy, represent the different techniques, styles, uses of media, and attitudes toward the production of prints. By incorporating written statements from all of the individuals featured in this publication, E C Cunningham has enabled the individuals to speak for themselves, effectively capturing their knowledge and their unique personalities.
