Learning Goals
Providing knowledge about the route and the evolution of printing processes.
Conscientize the student for the current electronic techniques.
- Today the printmaking techniques and developments.
- Acquire knowledge about development and implementation of;
- Linoleum techniques, wood and others like that;
- Screenprinting, direct process;
- Metal, direct and indirect techniques,
- Acquire knowledge about the matrix processes realization with additive techniques, and
- Implementation of monotype.
- Provide contact with these means of graphic expression; promote the use and mastery of appropriate instruments,
as well as the media and processes for printing.
- From the theoretical knowledge, to stimulate the creative process through research materials and different
exercises.
- It's important conceptual and experimental attitude of the student on the creative process.
