This workshop is being held in conjunction with To See as Artists See: American Art from The Phillips Collection. Monoprinting is a process in which painting and printmaking processes are used in combination to create one-of-a-kind, unique works on paper.
In this workshop, participants will learn the basic process of creating monoprints and monotypes. The workshop will begin with a tour of the galleries and the works shown in To See as Artists See. Afterwards, and inspired by the works on view, participants will head back to the studios with Hosford and explore a variety of techniques and methods using oil-based inks on Plexiglas.
Mark Hosford is also one of the artists whose work is included in the exhibition Fairy Tales, Monsters, and the Genetic Imagination, on view in the Upper-Level Galleries from February 24 through to May 28, 2012 and Metamorphoses: Drawings by Erin Anfinson, Kristi Hargrove, Mark Hosford, and Chris Scarborough, on view in the Conte Community Arts Gallery June 8 through October 28, 2012.
