OG’s of the outlaw printmaking scene, Huck, Hernandez, and Fick will field tough questions and gentle prods from one of their partners in crime, Kirsten Flaherty. We’ll learn how the most energized sector of the print world came to be, how they make stuff, and what new territories they are plundering.
Tom Huck, also spelled Hück, (born 1971), is an American printmaker best known for his large-scale satirical woodcuts. He lives and works in Park Hills, Missouri, where he runs his own press, Evil Prints. His work is influenced by Albrecht Dürer, José Guadalupe Posada, R. Crumb, and Honoré Daumier.
The work of Houston-based serigraphy artist Carlos Hernandez has been showcased through a variety of gallery shows and projects that include the music industry, restaurant and retail design, and corporate work. Carlos is a founding partner of Burning Bones Press, a full-service printmaking studio located in the Hous- ton Heights and has served as an instructor of Screen Printing at Rice University, Department of Visual and Dramatic Arts.
Bill Fick is a printmaker who lives in Durham, North Carolina. For the past 30+ years Fick has been making super-graphic narrative prints that deal with a variety of satirical and sociopolitical themes. He’s especially interested in making work that bridges the gap between fine art and lowbrow art.
As the current Associate Director of Pace Prints, Kirsten Flaherty has over a decade of experience working in print-related organizations across New York including the International Fine Print Dealers Association, IPCNY, and Dieu Donné Papermill. As a working artist, Flaherty focuses in mezzotint and etching.
