Printing for the "Blurring the Lines, Manuscripts in the Age of Print” at The Getty Museum
I’m thrilled to have my prints and plates keeping company with such amazing historical manuscripts in The Getty Museum’s, “Blurring the Lines; Manuscripts in the Age of Print” exhibition, up now until October 27th. They are part of an educational didactic in the exhibition showing how a woodcut or a copper engraving is made. The exhibition has examples of the integration of printmaking with illuminated manuscripts in the Middle Ages. The prints I did are inspired by “Studies of Peonies”, by Martin Schongauer from the late 1400’s. I was delighted to work with Larisa Grollemond, the Assistant Curator of Manuscripts at the Getty on this. What a dream project! Below are some images of the project in process.
