Painters, Players, and Poets

kcc-innerterrain

Peregrine Press member Kate Cheney Chappell is one of 16 painters whose work will be included in the upcoming Painters, Players, and Poets exhibition. From the Painters, Players, and Poets website:

“Painters, Players and Poets is a unique collaboration celebrating the tremendous talents of 48 Maine artists. Included in the project are 16 Maine painters, 9 Maine players/composers, 7 Maine poets and 16 Maine chair makers.

In the spring of 2009 Writer/Producer Con Fullam asked several well known Maine composers and poets to identify a living Maine painter whose work inspired them, and to then choose a specific painting to interpret via poem or musical composition. That process has now been completed and a traveling exhibition featuring those 16 collaborations is set to hit the road in July 2011.”

The show opens at the Lewis Gallery at the Portland, Public Library on September 7th from 5:00 – 8:00 PM, and will also be up and open for the First Friday Artwalk September 2nd.

Zea Mays Photo-based Printmaking Workshop

5-day Photo-based printmaking workshop
Instructor: Nancy Diessner
When: July 25 – 29th
How Much: $630 non-members $570 members

From the Zea Mays website:

Photography and Printmaking are not strangers to each other, and in fact can work together beautifully in several different processes. This workshop will introduce you to the magic of several distinct photo-based printmaking techniques, including the lithographic Pronto Plate process and Photopolymer Intaglio, which involves a photo-sensitive polymer plate. These processes are much safer than traditional photo-etching, which relies on hazardous chemicals.

This five day workshop will allow you to immerse yourself in these processes, and will give you the confidence to explore how you can best adapt them to your own artwork. We’ll begin with the more direct processes, and work up to Photopolymer Intaglio, the process that has the potential to be the most refined. We’ll wrap up the workshop exploring ways to combine these processes together with other printmaking processes, to create startling and unique prints.
