After thought of Zimmerli Exhibit

I went back to the Zimmerli for the speaking on woodcuts for my printing class and had some things I took away with me. There weren't just woodcuts which was interesting and it was nice to hear a story and process behind each print.
I liked Leonard Baskins works and how he sometimes used found materials of wood like drift wood to create his works. That was very interesting making art from nature as well as reusing it.
Edmond Casarella would use stacks of cardboard glued together instead of wood and make relief prints that way. I think thats a useful way of making art no matter what materials you have to work with.


I also enjoyed Richard Bosman's prints because of his layouts and structural choices.
