Michael Hagan

Rethinking elements of the hand print and other graphic arts in an era of new technology, Mike Hagan explores intersections of hand-pulled printing with other graphic processes including drawing, photography, commercial printing, and textile patterns. Traditional printmaking techniques are combined with new technologies to efficiently and precisely employ traditional and custom half tones, textures, tessellations, patterns, and unique, flat, complex, or "exploded" colors. The visually apparent half tones in his prints (i.e., dots, lines, and custom shapes) are also metaphors for commercial printmaking, for current culture, and for new technology.

Exhibition runs September 28-October 30.

Conversations with the Printmaker: Saturday, October 8, 1-4 pm
Closing Reception: Saturday, October 29, 1-4 pm
