Two printmaking professors from the College of Visual and Performing Arts' Department of Art—in collaboration with Bay Area artists and youth groups—will be using a two-ton steamroller to press seven-foot-long woodcarvings covered with cloth for “Carving Through Borders,” a printmaking event to be held this Saturday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. in San Franciscos Mission District outside Paul Mullowney Studio, 931 Treat Avenue.
The art is focused on the theme of migration, and will be part of the 42nd annual Southern Graphics Council International Conference, and open to the public. The faculty members, Holly Greenberg and Dusty Herbig—along with six graduate and three undergraduate students—are collaborating with me and Culturestrike to coordinate this event.
