Zea Mays Printmaking staff have been invited to studios around the world to present workshops in safer printmaking practices. We often keep a blog of the experience. You can travel vicariously with us by delving into the images and words we’ve recorded.
In November 2013 Liz Chalfin and Sheldon Carroll went to Havana, Cuba to conduct a polyester plate lithography workshop at San Alejandro Academy of Fine Arts and to deliver an exhibition of prints to the school.
Studio director Liz Chalfin visited Artist Proof Studio in Johannesburg in January 2019 to conduct a workshop on safer etching and work in their Pro-Shop. Along the way she made plates for William Kentridge.
In February 2020, in between Carnivale and Covid, Liz Chalfin and Sheldon Carroll visited the Scuola Internazionale de Grafica in Venice, Italy for a 3-week residency. Here’s the story of their experience during this unique time.
An artistic inquiry into printmaking substrates + health impacts, researched by 7 studio artists.
