Students are taught traditional Japanese techniques for
conceptualizing a design in terms of woodcut, carving the
blocks and printing them, first in trail proofs and
editions. After understanding how both of these methods
were originally used and then seeing how contemporary
artists have adapted them to their own purposes, both for
themselves and in collaboration with printers, students will
use them to fulfill their own artistic vision. Considerable
use is made of the Davison Art Collection of traditional and
contemporary Japanese prints as well as many European and
American woodcuts.
