About the Item

Stone and Press Gallery is excited to offer several works in celebration of the LGBTQ community. This mezzotint was created by Laurent Sckolnyk and was meant as an homage to the movie stars of yesteryear -- in this case Marlene Dietrich. Dietrich was an icon in the gay community. A wonderful piece for PRIDE or anytime. This impression is #25 of an edition of 45. Laurent Schkolnyk was born in Paris in 1953. He studied drawing and etching at the Beaux Art School in Nantes, France. Schkolnyk later studied with Professor Guimezanes, who taught him the mezzotint technique. He is a recognized master of three-color mezzotint prints. In this process, three separate mezzotint plates are made for the three primary colors. During printing, the colors mix to create a full spectrum of color, from bright reds to rich blacks. Schkolnyk has had solo exhibitions in Paris, Tokyo, San Francisco, and Seattle. His work has been included in numerous group exhibitions in France, the United States, and Asia. Laurent Schkolnyk currently lives and work in Nantes, France.

Singer Needle
By Carol Wax
Located in New Orleans, LA
Carol Wax's "Singer Needle" is a mezzotint issued in an edition of 100. It was originally designed to illustrate the step by step mezzotint process in the Abrams publication: "The Mezzotint: History and Technique" authored by Carol Wax. It is FIROS #44 in the catalogue raisonne. This impression is #98 out of 100 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 Sylvan Cole to exhibit at Associated American Artists Gallery, launching her career as a professional artist/printmaker. With the publication of her book, The Mezzotint: History and Technique, published by Abrams, 1990 and 1996, Carol added author and teacher to her credits. In the ensuing years she has expanded her repertoire of mediums beyond printmaking into other works on paper and painting. In compositions reflecting an appreciation for antiquated machinery and vintage textiles, Wax creates imagery that, in her own words, “… speaks to an inner life perceived in inanimate objects.” She uses stylization and imagination to reinvent subjects, transforming an ordinary typewriter into a monumental icon...
