Printmaking
• The art of stamping
• Purpose = making multiples of the same image
Printmaking
Printmaking

1. Make multiple copies of an original
2. Silkscreen Lithography Intaglio/etching Monotype Relief
Silkscreen
Images made by forcing ink through silk stretched on a wooden frame
• Stencil or block-out image using fluid
• Apply ink to areas were no fluid was used
• Squeegee ink through screen onto fabric/paper/clothing

Lithography
Images made by printing on the surface of the stone or surface
• A greasy (oil-based) crayon is applied to a smooth block of limestone.– The stone is ground down, acid is applied to clean it,
water is sponged onto the stone and oil-based ink is rolled on.
• Ink will only stick to the crayon but not the water.• Paper is placed on top and a large press applies
pressure to transfer the ink.

Intaglio
Images made by printing from the lower surface
• Lines are cut or etched into a smooth plate of metal
• Ink is rubbed into the grooves and the surface is wiped clean
• Damp paper is forced into the inked grooves by heavy printing press

4. Images made by printing on the surface of the stone or surface
Image made by painting on a smooth, non-absorbent surface one time
• An image is painted • The paper is pressed onto the image,
transferring it.
• The unique aspect of a monotype is that the plate can never be replicated.

Relief Printing
Images made by printing from a raised surface
• The lowered area does not print – stays the color of the paper.
One color ink• Examples – woodcuts, linoleum cuts, found
objects, fingerprints

Reduction Printing
• Relief printing using more than one color– Every time a color is printed,
that particular color will be carved away, reducing the block down and eliminating that color in order to print a different color

Who thought of this??
• An artist named Jennifer Schmitt from Massachusetts • One day she laid out all her prints on the floor on
afternoon and though “Gee, they look like the periodic table."
• A friend dared her to do the project• She posted her idea on Etsy and BarenForum.org (a
group for printmakers, primarily woodcut artists), and it spread from there...
• IT MAY NOT BE TOO MUCH OF A COINCIDENCE:The artist's mother was a high school chemistry teacher
Jennifer Schmitt with the Periodic Table of Printmaking, on display in Elemental Matters
Jennifer Schmitt
“This visual interpretation makes it easier to remember information about the elements, gives you a story or a tidbit or fact to hang onto. I know far more about a lot elements now than I did a year ago or in 10th grade.”
• 97 printmakers produced 118 prints in a combo of; woodcut, linocut, monotype, etching, lithograph, silkscreen.
• 7 countries - Australia, Canada, England, Italy, Japan, Scotland, United States
• 29 US states & Puerto Rico from the US - Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin.

A little background..
• Dmitri Mendeleev published the first periodic table in 1869. He showed that when the elements were ordered according to atomic weight, a pattern resulted where similar properties for elements recurred periodically. Based on the work of physicist Henry Moseley, the periodic table was reorganized on the basis of increasing atomic number rather than on atomic weight.
Artist: Natalia Moroz
• Darmstadtium is the synthetic chemical element, a superheavy metal, of atomic number 110. The first atom of the heaviest chemical element was detected in Darmstadt, Germany in 1994. It decays after a small fraction of a thousandth of a second into lighter elements by emitting alpha-particles which are the nuclei of helium atoms. Reading about Darmstadtium I instantly imagined its superheavy atom lifted by an old-fashioned circus weightlifter. He is struggling under the weight while looking expectantly at his wristwatch: the weight is supposed to lighten any millisecond now.
