I try and approach image making as homage to all that came before; allowing me to address issues that arise in contemporary art: technical components, craft, and process as a focus that forwards my voice as an artist.

A California native, I’ve spent the last eight years in Minnesota where my first truly serious encounters with printmaking and the book arts came through the post-baccalaureate program at MCAD in 2005 – 2006. For the next several years, I continued my art practice through Continuing Studies at MCAD and classes at Minnesota Center for Book Arts. In 2011, I received a Jerome Fellowship from MCBA; the need for more concentrated studio access led me to Highpoint.

Five Beauties Rising
A significant new body of work by internationally renowned artist Willie Cole. The works created in collaboration with Highpoint Editions include 27 intaglio and relief prints of ironing boards, a series of small and large screenprinted iron patterns juxtaposed in eye-popping colors, as well as a large woodcut depicting two female forms comprised of women’s high heeled shoes and echoing themes and techniques Cole has employed in his sculptural work.

“Team Gorman” and “Miller Trucking”
David Rathman returned to Highpoint Editions during summer 2011 and finished up work on a spectacular large-scale diptych of a demolition derby car and truck. The images are lithographs in black and are hand water-colored by the artist. Both vehicles are tiled into multiple prints, emphasizing their quirky, deconstructed/ reconstructed quality and the scale reflects the physicality of their subjects.

Skeleton Images Tossed by Chance
Based in Mexico City and well-known internationally, Amorales embraces a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach to creating his art. While working with Highpoint Editions, his strategy of replication and reconfiguration of his Liquid Archive — a collection of drawings that he has assembled over the past decade — led to the production of wonderful new prints.
