FRANCES JETTER

Cry Uncle 2009, spread from 23-page accordion fold book 

Since 1975, Francis Jetter has made prints on political and social subject matter to illustrate articles in publications that include The New York Times, The Village Voice, Time and The Nation. She has illustrated books for the Franklin Library and created book jackets for Knopf, Macmillan and other publishers.

Her work in sculpture and printmaking has been widely shown in the United States in solo and group exhibitions at galleries in New York, Princeton, San Francisco and Seattle.

Her work is in the collections of the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, Detroit Institute of Arts, The New York Public Library Print Collection, and Grinnell College Print and Drawing Study Room in Grinnell, Iowa. Her artist book "Cry Uncle", a graphic response to man's inhumanity to man in Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, Bagram and other sites, was recently purchased by Plymouth State University's Lamson Library in Plymouth New Hampshire.  

She has received awards from professional organizations such as the Society of Newspaper Designers, the Society of Illustrators and the Society of Publication Designers, and her work has been included in illustration annuals by Graphis, Print, and Communication Arts. She teaches at the School of Visual Arts.

EXPERIMENTS WITH ENCAUSTIC COLLAGRAPH 
Tuesdays, 10:30 am-4:30 pm 
June 17 and 24 (2 weeks)
Instructor: Dorothy Cochran

Artists will work with hot wax to create their printmaking matrix and to enhance their print practice. The fluid nature of this collagraph method is appealing for its versatility and ease of manipulation. Wax is applied to a plexiglass substrate using gestural brushwork, then further carved and incised for textural effects. Found objects can be stamped and embedded, linear elements layered with hot tools, tape and stencils used for precise geometry and image definition. Plates will be printed with Akua soy base inks used both as intaglio and relief. Additional explorations include multiple plate monotypes and chine collé applications.
