About the Item

Maize by Scholnyk is a mezzotint of ears of corn in a woven basket. This impression is #25 of an edition of 80. Schkolnyk was born in Paris, France in 1953 and currently resides in Nantes. He studied drawing and etching at the Beaux Art School in Nantes, France, and later studied with Professor Guimezanes – learning the details of the mezzotint technique. Schkolnyk is a master of three-color mezzotint prints. He creates three different mezzotint plates and then prints each one using a primary color. These transparent colors interact with each other creating a full spectrum of colors from white to bright red and velvet black. Whether the impression is printed in one color or multi-colors the final product is amazingly rich. Laurent Schkolnyk has had single-artist exhibitions in Paris, France; Tokyo, Japan; San Francisco, CA; & Seattle, WA. His work has been included in numerous group exhibitions in France, the United States, and Asia.

Mezzotint

In Memory of an Historic Phrase
By Marc Balakjian
Located in New Orleans, LA
Marc Balakjian was enigmatic in his subject matter creating images that are disturbing in their ambiguity. Is this image just striped fabric tied with ropes on a platform or is this is a flag-draped coffin symbolizing those who passed "in memory of an historic phrase"? Politicians may turn the phrase but a price must be paid. This small edition mezzotint was created in 1975 in an edition of only 5. Armenian by descent, Marc Balakjian was raised in Lebanon. He spent his early years in the small town of Rayak, before moving to Beirut at the age of 10. He came to England in 1966, initially to study architecture with a firm in Oxford. He then decided to study art at Hammersmith College of Art and took up a postgraduate degree in printmaking at the Slade School of Art in 1971. After graduating he began working at Studio Prints in 1973, just as it was establishing itself in Queen’s Crescent. By 1976 he had become a full time partner, collaborating with other artists as well as continuing his own work, much of which is inspired by his Armenian and Lebanese culture and heritage. By the 1980s work was falling off, so Balakjian and Studio Prints introduced in-house plate-making to serve painters and sculptors who had little experience with printmaking. Artists such as Leon Kossoff, Frank Auerbach, Lucian Freud and Ken Kiff...
