(56)

Graphic Studio Dublin, Fine Art Printmakers, was established in 1960 to teach traditional printmaking skills (then unavailable in Irish art colleges), and to provide studios and technical assistance to artists to make fine art prints. Its five founders were Patrick Hickey, Leslie MacWeeney, Liam Miller, Elizabeth Rivers and Anne Yeats. Since 2007 the studios are housed in a stunning converted gran

ary building: Distillery House, North Circular Road, Dublin 1. Its gallery, Graphic Studio Gallery, opened in 1988 in Cope Street, Temple Bar and has become an essential cultural feature of the city. The Gallery was established to promote fine-art printmaking in Ireland and abroad, to educate the public about fine art printmaking, and to exhibit and sell fine art prints on behalf of our studio members and gallery artists. It showcases up to 11 national and international fine art print exhibitions annually, as well as hosting talks and print demonstrations. Graphic Studio Dublin facilitates the following print techniques: etching, lithography, linocut, drypoint, carborundum, woodblock, aquatint, photo etching, blind embossing, collography and mezzotint. Technical assistance and education of artist members in the above printmaking techniques is core to our ethos. The Visiting Artists programme, operated by Graphic Studio Dublin has made one of the most important contributions to the development of Irish printmaking over the last ten years. Under this scheme, Maser, Alice Maher, Mary Lohan, Gwen O'Dowd, Richard Gorman, William Crozier, Hughie O’Donohue, Tony O’Malley have been among many other renowned artists, who sometimes have little or no experience of printmaking, but are very well-known artists, are invited to work with a trained technician, under the guidance of our master printer, to produce an edition of prints that are showcased at the gallery.

DRYPOINT ETCHING |1 DAY WORKSHOP | 10 NOVEMBER with MICHELE HETHERINGTON

TUTOR: Michele Hetherington

DATE: 10 November
TIME: 10am to 4pm
PRICE: €110

Designed for those new to Printmaking, wanting to develop new skills and looking to try something different- This Workshop will introduce students to the process of Drypoint.

Drypoint is a versatile technique and is a great method if you would like to take your drawings into print. Drypoint is a non-toxic printmaking process whereby no acids are needed. Surfaces suitable for drypoint include; Polycarbonate (Plastic), Copper, Aluminium and Zinc. The chosen surface is worked through using a variety of mark making tools including scribes and roulettes. The lines and textures produced using drypoint techniques have a distinctly soft fuzzy line characteristic. Due to the delicate nature of drypoint, it is usually made in small editions.

Students will explore drypoint and develop different mark making techniques using conventional and non-conventional tools. Students are encouraged to bring with them; drawings and other source material to make imagery. They should also bring with them any mark making tools they wish to explore and experiment with.

Students will be shown how to adapt their own imagery to the technique, how to handle the cutting tools, rollers and printing press, choose suitable paper, register multiple blocks for different colours and how to present their finished prints.

Students will leave the workshop with a small edition of prints and the knowledge of how to use the technique in their own home or studio setting.

CARBORUNDUM WORKSHOP 2-3 NOVEMBER with ELKE THONNES

TUTOR: Elke Thonnes

DATE: 2-3 November
TIME: 10am to 4pm
PRICE: €220

Participants will learn how to make prints using polycarbonate plates and carborundum. Carborundum is probably the most painterly of the printing techniques but it can be combined with other techniques like collagraph for texture and drypoint for line.
Carborundum is a fine, sand like grit that can be mixed with PVA to create a paste. We will paint this onto our plates and once dry the textured marks will hold ink. Your source images can be photographs, or drawings which we will use as inspiration for your plates.
The course will guide you through the whole printmaking process, from plate making to inking up, wiping, and finally running a print through the press.

MOKUHANGA | INTERMEDIATE | WORKSHOP 12-13 OCTOBER with KATE MACDONAGH and ED MILIANO

TUTOR: Kate MacDonagh and Ed Miliano

DATE: 12-13 October
TIME: 10am to 4pm
PRICE: €220

Following in the tradition of Japanese Ukiyo-e printmaking, Mokuhanga is a process
that is suitable for anyone interested in a sustainable, non-toxic, water-based, table-top
printmaking technique.

This unique, meditative and environmentally friendly process involves hand-carving on Japanese Shina plywood (or hardwood) and printing onto Japanese Washi paper. With no mechanical press required, only a handheld ‘Baren’, students will have the opportunity to explore printmaking techniques to achieve various effects such as ‘Bokashi’ (gradations) Tsubushi (flat printing), ‘Goma Zuri’ (sesame seed).

In this workshop, we will use a registration system based on the uniquely Japanese ‘Kento’ system of registration. Introducing ‘Soto Kento’ (outer registration system) also known as ‘the floating Kento’. This method allows more room to experiment with larger full- bleed images.

BOOKBINDING | COPTIC STITCH WORKSHOP 12-13 OCTOBER with EILIS MURPHY

TUTOR: Eilis Murphy

DATE: 12-13 October
TIME: 10am to 4pm
PRICE: €230

The Coptic binding method is one of the oldest methods of bookbinding and takes its name from early Christians in Egypt – the Copts – and used from as early as the 2nd century AD. This bookbinding style is still in use today because it yields a strong binding despite the exposed spine.

The coptic stitch book has a surprisingly modern look with an exposed spine with chain link stitching. The pages lie completely flat making it a great structure for notebooks, sketchbooks and artist’s books.
In this workshop you will create a beautiful handmade book by folded and sewing signatures into a multi-section hard back book. It will be covered with decorative paper – either from Éilís’ supply or from paper you have yourself.

You will gain knowledge of how to use basic book binding tools and the principals of bookbinding including grain direction, gluing and folding tips.
This historic binding can be used for sketching, journalling and other creative activities.

Ailbhe Barrett, Towards An Equillibrium

Printed area 118 x 98 cm
Edition size 12
Medium(s) carborundum; collagraph
Price €1900

Reverie, goes on view from Sat 14th Sept, opening Thurs 19th.

‘’Reverie is a new body of work by painter and printmaker Ailbhe Barrett. These large scale paintings and carborundum prints explore the tensions between the ephemeral and the permanent, the remembered and the revisited. Through landscape, Barrett meditates on the memories held in the land, and human concepts of ownership and boundaries.

Using glazes, dense carborundum, subtle tonal blends and assertive drypoint incisions, Barrett deftly balances form and light. Her engagement with process and materials sees trees, roads and fields estranged from their origins. A roof in silhouette, power lines engulfed by overgrowth, hints of habitation embedded in the landscape. Human and natural entanglement are woven into the essence of Barrett’s practice. New openings and undulations appear, as layers of translucency and texture are applied, worked and re-worked into the surfaces, tracing memories across the works themselves.

The sheer physicality and scale of these new works speaks to the physical engagement and labour of creation. We shape the land, just as the land shapes us. Our presence in the world etches new terrain upon the psyche, mediated topographies, mementos of reverie.’’
– Ria Czerniak LeBov

Ailbhe Barret is a self-taught painter and printmaker. She has exhibited nationally and internationally. As a member of Graphic Studio Dublin, she has utilised one of the largest intaglio printing presses in Ireland to create new original prints in expansive dimensions for this exhibition. In terms of scale, Barrett’s new work is her most ambitious to date, with large format work in diptych, triptych and polyptych form included.

It’s less than a week to Ailbhe Barrett’s solo show of new paintings and prints!

Barrett’s new work is her most ambitious to date, with large format work in diptych, triptych and polyptych form included.

‘’Ailbhe Barrett’s work is as complex as it is beautiful. It is delicate and intense, both physically and emotionally. It does not tell a story but offers the beginnings of one. It does not shout, but it persuades.‘’
– Dr Angela Griffith, Irish Arts Review, Autumn Issue, 2024

07/09/2024

We are thrilled to launch a new body of work by Ailbhe Barrett next weekend at the gallery.

Consisting of new prints and paintings the exhibition Reverie goes on view from Sat 14th Sept and will be opened by Dr Angela Griffith on Thurs 19th Sept.

‘’She recalls vividly the natural surroundings, spaces she stood in and observed, but it is also the emotional and spiritual realities of such places. They are reservoirs of memory…Barrett’s extensive levels of physical engagement with making, or ‘sculpting’ the copperplate according to her will, alongside her complete absorption in the process, results in work of transcendent emotional intensity…Ailbhe Barrett’s work is as complex as it is beautiful. It is delicate and intense, both physically and emotionally. It does not tell a story but offers the beginnings of one. It does not shout, but it persuades.‘’

Gallery & Fine Art Print Studio. We don’t just sell prints, we make them too! Est. in 1960, we are Ireland's oldest and largest printmaking studio.

Graphic Studio Dublin, was established in 1960 to teach traditional printmaking skills (then unavailable in Irish art colleges), and to provide studios and technical assistance to artists to make fine art prints. Since 2007 the studios are housed in a stunning converted granary building: Distillery House, North Circular Road, Dublin 1. Its gallery, Graphic Studio Gallery, opened in 1988 in Cope Street, Temple Bar and has become an essential cultural feature of the city. It holds the largest stock of original prints in Ireland, and is recognised as the leading fine art print gallery in Ireland. The gallery was established to promote fine-art printmaking in Ireland and abroad, as well as educating the public about fine art printmaking. It showcases up to 11 national and international fine art print exhibitions annually, as well as hosting talks and print demonstrations. Proceeds from the sale of prints at the gallery help fund our studio, and the artists that it exhibits. Graphic Studio Dublin facilitates the following print techniques: etching, lithography, linocut, drypoint, carborundum, woodblock, aquatint, photo etching, blind embossing, collography and mezzotint. Technical assistance and education of artist members in the above printmaking techniques is core to our ethos. The Visiting Artists programme, operated by Graphic Studio Dublin has made one of the most important contributions to the development of Irish printmaking over the last ten years. Under this scheme, Maser, Alice Maher, Mary Lohan, Gwen O'Dowd, Richard Gorman, William Crozier, Hughie O’Donohue, Tony O’Malley have been among many other renowned artists, who sometimes have little or no experience of printmaking, but are very well-known artists, are invited to work with a trained technician, under the guidance of our master printer, to produce an edition of prints that are showcased at the gallery.
