Jukka Vanttinen
Jukka Vanttinen was introduced to the medium of mezzotint through a book by Sir Frank Short on British mezzotints. He learned through experimentation and made his first mezzotint in 1982. He considers mezzotint to be his primary artistic medium. His work has won prizes at the 1989 Biennial in Wakayama, Japan and at the 1993 International Biennial of Graphic Art in Sapporo, Japan. In 1994, Vanttinen was selected for inclusion in “Intergrafia ’94 – World Award Winners Gallery” in Katowice, Poland.

View AllSew What (the swells and swirls of the stripes are now in the hands of others)
By Carol Wax
Located in New Orleans, LA
"Sew What" is a color mezzotint with burin engraving created in an edition of 35. This impression is #6. I love sumptuously designed textiles in both real life and art. Patterns metamorphosing over fabric folds appeal to my interest in modulating rhythmic forms, particularly the swells and swirls of calligraphic stripes. I’m also fascinated by articulated wooden hand models, which appear in many of my paintings. Combining these passions with sewing paraphernalia from my seamstress days provided inspiration for my color mezzotint engraving "Sew What".
Carol Wax originally trained to be a classical musician at the Manhattan School of Music but fell in love with printmaking. Soon after she began engraving mezzotints she was asked by the renowned print dealer...

Profils Horizontaux (20 men seated in a church, a hall, union or political?)
By Maurice Pasternak
Located in New Orleans, LA
Viewers are always curious about this image. I count 20 people seated -- all men. Why? Three of the men are looking over their shoulders toward the back. Are they impatient to see late arrivers? The seating seems to be pew like. Pasternak, like most artists, wants the viewer to bring their own interpretation to the image and is most circumspect to give an explanation. A church, a union hall, a political meeting -- which is it? The mood seems to be one of anxiety rather than celebration.
The artist did answer why all men. He says that "he likes to create the tension of the image on the page. Putting women and men together...
