30 points * 12 studio hours per week * Full-year subject * Caulfield * Prerequisites: First-year major studies or equivalent
Objectives On completion of this subject, students will have extended their understanding of printmaking methods and materials by the study and practice of advanced printing (including colour) techniques, experimentation with mixed media and have begun an investigation of the `artist's book' as a vehicle for expression; directed their image making, conceptual and analytical skills and used their understanding of fine art theory toward the formation of a personal visual language; and developed further the ability to articulate artistic intentions in oral and written presentations of both their own practice and that of others.
Synopsis Further development of the basic skills obtained in first year, thus exposing students to the widest possible range of techniques and approaches within each of the media, eg intaglio screenprinting, relief painting, lithography; plus an introduction to photographic methods of photogravure, photolithography, transfers, multiples etc.
