The First Six Months of Showprint

3/29/2015

3 Comments

 
Since I began working at the Black Rock Press, I have had the opportunity to assist in the monthly printing of the Showprint with The Holland Project.

Showprint is an all ages calendar of events featuring exciting happenings (music, art, film, etc.) along with art by local artists. Each month a different artist is asked to carve a linoleum block, which will be printed in an edition of 200 on the back of the calendar. The calendars are free and are deposited around Reno in various locations (Sundance Bookstore, Bibo Coffee on Record Street, The Black Rock Press) Since my arrival and the revival of the Showprint, we have printed 6 calendars with plans to continue throughout the summer months.  

The calendar is created and designed by Denali Lowder along with Garret Caulfield with a little design help from the folks at the Black Rock Press. The artist each month changes.

Final print. Edition of 200.
I was asked to participate in The Holland Project's monthly Showprint. Showprint is an all-ages calendar produced in cooperation with the Black Rock Press. Generally, I meet with the folks at Holland at the Black Rock Press and assist in printing 200 copies. The calendar portion is laser printed and the linoleum is printed on a Vandercook. These prints/calendars are then distributed throughout the Reno area at local independent stores such as Sundance and Bibo Coffee for free. 

This month I was asked to be the featured artist. Here are a few pictures of the work in progress and the final printed version. Thanks to the folks at The Holland Project for thinking of me.
