PRINTMAKING PERSPECTIVES: THE CONTEMPORARY PHENOMENA OF OLD METHODS

Abstract

The following techniques have been practiced since ages and had great impact on the image making process. The process involved the limited tools and methods to achieve the immense quality in prints. When we compare with the regular traditional printmaking method, they deal with the various chemicals, agents, reagents. These non-toxic methods have environmental sustainability and easy to work with it. The motivations for the "non-toxic" printmaking movement have been twofold: to create a healthier environment in which to make art, and to make less of a toxic impact on the environment. With that characteristics of art practices are constantly changing .naturally one tries to re create the artistic conventional methods he grew up with and use them from long period of time.
