THE POWER OF PRINTMAKING

What is a print? How is it made? A work of art made up of ink on paper. You do NOT draw directly on paper, you TRANSFER the image to paper. What does this mean? Create a design on another surface, put ink on this surface, and then press paper onto it so that the image goes onto the paper Advantages: you can make an unlimited number of prints or “impressions” with every new piece of paper you print your image on There are many different ways to make a print. The four best known are WOODCUT, ETCHING, LITHOGRAPHY & SCREENPRINT.

What technique did Carlos Cortéz use in We are From the Earth—We are not illegal! ? LINOCUT A LINOCUT is a modern-day take on a traditional WOODCUT

WHAT IS A WOODCUT? The earliest printmaking technique. Originally used for stamping designs onto fabric or making playing cards. Became an important art form in the 1500s Cutting the wood Cut away where you don’t want ink Inking Roll ink across the raised portions of the wood block Print Place a sheet of paper on top and rub with a wooden spoon Astronomer, by Albrecht Drüer. 1500

What technique did Luis Jiménez use for Crossing the Rio Bravo ? LITHOGRAPHY

What is LITHOGRAPHY? Printing from a stone with a smooth surface. Invented in Germany 1796 as a cheap method for publishing plays. Treat the stone: wipe the image with a chemical solution Ink the stone Draw on the stone: use an oil-based crayon or greasy ink to draw an image on a stone Fix or bond the image to the stone: wipe the stone with a solvent that dissolves most of the image, leaving only a ghost like trace of the drawing. Dampen the stone Print

Printmaking and the Mexican Revolution Mexican Revolution, 1910–1920 Convey messages of the Revolution Images of important historical figures, Mexican people and locations. Most had political undertones because of the Revolution. Popular because of the low cost it took to produce them: all you needed was wood or linoleum, a blade to carve, ink and paper.
