Description
In this course, students will study contemporary and traditional techniques in lithography. Traditional lithography, invented in 1796, is the practice of drawing directly onto a prepared stone surface, etching and then printing from that surface. Photolithography involves creating positive films and exposing an image onto a photo pre-sensitized aluminum plate. Polyester plate and paper lithography will also be demonstrated. Throughout the quarter, students will work towards creating a technical portfolio. The course will conclude with a print exchange.Maximum Enrollment: 12
