____________________________________________________________________________________ Upcoming Lecture with F. G. "Fred" Yost Handmade Paper-making for Artistic Purposes April 17, Friday 6 PM, In the Art League Studios
Prior to the invention of paper, thoughts and numerals were transcribed onto wood, bone, clay and papyrus by tribal people, Sumerians and Egyptians. The invention of what we now call paper is said to have occurred around 300BC in southeast China. These early efforts will be briefly illustrated. A more thorough discussion will be given of “modern” techniques which, for example, began at the Fabriano Mill in 1276 AD. These methods and required equipment will be illustrated as Fred reviews the construction of his own paper-mill in 1981. Finally, Fred will present his own efforts by way of painting, printmaking, calligraphy and bookmaking. The New Mexico Art League's Works on Paper exhibit will be on view at the time of the lecture. Plan to come early to view the artwork before the lecture. The show includes 82 pieces by 53 New Mexico artists, and all works are for sale. Free for Members | $5 for Non-Members Donations are welcome and appreciated to help support our programs! Register for Lecture: HANDMADE PAPER-MAKING FOR ARTISTIC PURPOSES |
