Details
Our current exhibition, Remington and Russell in Black and White, explores the artists’ works made in grisaille and used for illustrations in books and magazines. In some cases, a team of artisans would transfer the artist’s painted image into print form for publication.
Join us for our next Sid’s Studio adult workshop in which local artist Benjamin Muñoz will guide participants in creating (carving) their own woodcut block to print a small edition. Students are encouraged to bring a sketch sized around 4×5 inches.
Benjamin Muñoz is a Dallas-based multi-disciplinary artist whose practice spans painting, installation, and monumental printmaking. Muñoz grew up in the vibrant Chicano culture of Corpus Christi, Texas, which boasts the country’s largest Day of the Dead celebration, lowriders shows, and unique food culture.
