Printmaking Summer School

The Summer School, now in its third year, is designed with the aim of promoting contemporary artistic research and new languages related to print media, thanks to a high-level training offer that aims to merge the tradition of engraving art with contemporary and experimental techniques.

The 40-hour intensive course will take place from 3 to 7 July 2023, from 9.30 AM to 1.30 PM and from 2.30 to 6.30 PM, within the historic studios of the School, located in the evocative former stables of Palazzo Serristori in via del Giardino Serristori 13r , in the heart of Florence.

The lessons will include practical laboratory activities as well as lecture and talk with curators, artists and professionals in the sector.
Under the guidance of master engravers, the participants will deepen the contemporary techniques of printmaking in order to apply them to their artistic path, with attention to its multiple forms of expression, which over time change and are implemented through the use of new technologies, while maintaining strong foundations and peculiarities that sanction the autonomy of language.
At the end of the course, a show off of the works produced will be held in the presence of the public and attendance diplomas will be awarded.

The documents must be sent by email to school@ilbisonte.it.
