PHOTOGRAVURE PRINTER COMMUNITY
Friday March 20, 1:45-3:15pm, Salon 200 BC
Facilitator: Jennifer Scheuer, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York.

The “Photogravure Printer Community” INKubator session seeks to build a network of contemporary artists and printers who are currently working in the process of photogravure. Recently, a resurgence of interest in photogravure has led to many workshops; however, it is unclear who and where artists are now practicing this 19th century technique. The goal of the session is to build a community to share process and resources, to discuss specifics of the process and local climate, and to hold a discussion of both digital and analog practices. Please bring examples of your photogravures to the session. A hopeful outcome of this INKubator session is to organize a group of artists for a future print exchange of photogravure.
To participate in this session, email Jennifer Scheuer by November 1, 2014.
In advance of the conference, INKubator facilitators will establish an email thread or Yahoo Group to promote common readings or discussions by session participants. While INKubator sessions emphasize collaborative and dialogic processes, they are also intended to foster future outcomes, from exhibitions and portfolios, to projects and publications.
