Ulrike Theusner’s etchings and monotypes depict humans “trying to control the beast, the wilderness, the natural being of animals – but they can’t”. Theusner, originally from East Berlin/Weimar, currently has a solo exhibition up at Galerie EIGEN + ART in Leipzig, Germany.
Eunkang Koh, head of Printmaking at University of Nevada, Reno, often depicts half-animal and half-human figures. These hybrid creatures represent a portrait of us as social animals and the society that we live in.
Ben Beres, professor of printmaking at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle and 1/3 of the well- established collaborative trio SuttenBeresCuller, explores text and process in his hand-marbled, high-key color monotypes.
Solange Roberdeau, 2023 Mendocino Arts Champion and new adjunct faculty in printmaking at Mendocino College, includes natural phenomena to make the work – for instance by applying ink to sheets of paper and leaving them out in the rain or allowing the wind to create patterns in suminagashi prints.
Explorations also features a selection of student work from Solange Roberdeau’s Introduction to Printmaking class here at Mendocino College.
