This workshop is led by contemporary Japanese artist Noriko Saitō, who
crafts lively, whimsical drypoint prints. Her monumental monochrome
print "Mori yo!" ("Hey, Forest!"), on view in the current exhibition
Japan on Paper, exemplifies Saitō's playful, expressive approach to
the drypoint medium, which she uses to capture her day-to-day
experiences. While part of a rich tradition of printmaking in Japan,
Saitō's work represents a deeply personal approach to drypoint
printing that responds to global and local trends. In this workshop,
Saitō will guide participants through the drypoint printing process
and discuss its significance to her work. Through experimentation with
the tools and techniques of drypoint printing, participants will share
a unique experience in printmaking alongside the artist. This program
is offered in conjunction with the special exhibition Japan on Paper,
on view at the Harvard Art Museums from May 25 through August 11,
2019. The workshop will take place in the Materials Lab, Lower Level.
