ART 138 SC - Books & Prints: Representing Blackness


In this studio course at the Scripps College Press, students will examine and learn the ways in which historical and contemporary Black artists have utilized the book form, letterpress printing, printmaking and other Book Arts techniques to represent their identity, history, experience, and Blackness. Each student will create a unique, limited-edition artist’s book. Students write original text, generate imagery, hand set metal and wooden type, letterpress print on antique presses, and hand-bind an edition of 12-15 copies of an artist’s book. The final book project will represent each student’s individual vision and effort.

Course Credit: 1.0
