VATERLAND BLUES #4.1
In today's post I'd like to point your attention to two videos featuring Master Printer Franz Duchatsch, who is working for Munich-based Blanc Kunstverlag. I'll post the second one later today.
This is pretty much exactly how I learned intaglio: from a guy in a mechanic's overall, in a rather grimey workshop (the felt! the blotting paper!), with more or less permanently black hands, using folded paper (invitations are perfect for this) as clips. And like in Duchatsch's printshop, despite all the smudges here and there the prints were clean and perfect.
No printmaking power animals in this video, but hey, he's pulling a nice drypoint of a cat. I like that this video also shows Duchatsch printing a colour photogravure from one plate, where the colours are painted in, after the plate has been inked up with black and wiped. No easy task.
The plate printed above is a drypoint by German artist Kurt Meyer-Eberhardt (1895-1976) . Further reading:
On their website the Blanc Kunstverlag has uploaded an English version of the video linked above: http://ww.w.blanc-kunstverlag.de/en/the-movie/how-our-prints-are-made.html
My recent posts have been pretty unrandom. Must be my German-ness level raising back up, by exposure or osmosis. To counter this: Fischmob - Bonanzarad. I can't even begin to explain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XruGr031ua0
Random thought: The recent printshops I've worked in were all super clean, white tables, pristine blankets, plexi boards over everything. And yet I sometimes feel that in such enviroments one becomes more careless (everything is perfectly clean, no need to worry) - whereas in the early shops the ink stone (and the table it was on) was a danger zone, but I didn't mess up more prints, rather less - because the things that had to be clean were clean. Makes you think. My uncle, who is a forrester lives in a cozy, medieval house that has the following sign above the door: this house is dirty enough to be cozy and clean enough to be happy. Maybe for the printshop it could be: This shop is dirty enough to be happy and clean enough to work out.

Oh dear. That is the name of the title and the mood, the artist saw in this young terrier. Isn't he cute like a cat? I love terriers. Also the one-season-tv-series from 2010.
Alert! The artist Kurt Meyer-Eberhardt captured that moment so well.
