ASSOCIATION OF PRINT SCHOLARS INAUGURAL SYMPOSIUM

November 7, 2015, 10 am – 6 pm

Hunter College (Hunter West 615)

695 Park Avenue, New York, NY

Entrance On Lexington Avenue, Between 67th And 68th Streets

This symposium will present new critical ideas and research about
printmaking. The morning session features graduate students speaking about
dissertation research. The afternoon panel, titled “Method, Material And
Meaning: Technical Art History and The Study of Prints,” centers on the
relationship between the technical choices made by printmakers, printers,
or publishers in order to rethink the connections between process,
material, and meaning in the graphic arts.


The APS Inaugural Symposium is the first event of a two-part series held in
collaboration with Ars Graphica. The series, entitled “New Impressions:
Emerging Research on Prints,” aims to shed light on innovative research
currently being completed around the globe about the graphic arts. The
second part of the series, sponsored by Ars Graphica, will take place in
Spring 2016 at the Instituto Centrale per la Grafica in Rome and will
feature the theme “Curating graphic arts! Le arti grafiche al museo.”
