Printmaking

The printmaking program at IU Southeast benefits from one of the finest faculty and facilities in our region. Our coursework provides experiences in traditional printmaking processes, such as relief, monotype, intaglio, silkscreen, and lithography. Digital imaging and photo printmaking processes are also important components of the curriculum. The printmaking studio at IU Southeast has hosted the Mid-America Print Council’s convention, and has had many nationally and internationally recognized visiting artists conduct workshops in its facilities. Because we have two nationally recognized faculty teaching in this concentration, printmaking at IU Southeast is unsurpassed in the region.
