Description:
This introductory workshop introduces students to the processes of Japanese block printmaking focusing on inking and printing. In this one-time workshop, students will experience basic carvings and print the one-block printmaking process with a Mt. Fuji-theme design provided by the instructor. They will also ink/color on two to three carved blocks to understand how kento, the registration mark works in Japanese printmaking including Ukiyo-e.
Ukiyo‐e is a genre of Japanese woodblock prints with multiple carved woodblocks produced between the 17th and the 20th centuries. Known for dynamic compositions and color gradations by multiple woodblocks, Ukiyo-e's influence on both major artists of the Western canon such as Paul Gauguin and Van Gogh will be explored alongside traditional and current Japanese artists revisiting the techniques and practices.
Date: 8/23, 3:30-6:30 pm
Location: Japanese Culture Center, Unit 2
