Process & Experimentation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Printmaking is a vital contemporary graphic art form based on the transferred image. It encompasses a variety of studio processes, each with innate image qualities. New and dynamic digital methods have expanded the role of printmaking to be a major force in contemporary art, a tool to investigate and redefine contemporary visual culture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Housed in an expansive workshop with state-of-the-art facilities, the Printmaking program at Boston University offers students close working relationships with expert professional faculty to develop an individual voice and technical skill. The program approaches printmaking as a unique and flexible discipline, comprising intaglio, lithography, relief, silkscreen, book arts, installation, and digital media, and encourages combined applications and connection with other disciplines. Printmaking is an active, engaged program with a strong emphasis in critical and creative thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boston University School of Visual Arts commands a prominent position in the professional printmaking community as a vibrant center for print activity. The printmaking department has hosted national meetings at Boston University, such as Shifting Grounds, the Southern Graphics Council International Conference, the internationally based Biennial Exhibitions of the Boston Printmakers, and many international visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
