ASLD is thrilled to welcome master printmaker Henrik Bøegh for Fall 2018 Visiting Artist Series. Henrik will speak about his prolific career and his incredible contribution to the field of non-toxic printmaking.

Henrik is known for his delicate photogravures with motifs from his many journeys to the Buddhist Cultural Centers such as in Cambodia, Myanmar and Vietnam as well as his interest in architecture from the Middle East, and Southern Spain. He lives and works in both Copenhagen and Andalusia, Spain.

Henrik Bøegh is a well known author and artist in the printmaking world. Since he established The Printmakers’ Experimentarium in Copenhagen in 1997 he has been working hard to spread the techniques of Non-Toxic Intaglio all over Europe. More than 800 printmakers from all over the world have been participating in his workshops all over Europe throughout the years since 97. His book “Handbook of Non-Toxic Intaglio” has been published in Danish, English, Spanish, Flemish, Dutchand French language. The book has been visualized in the video and DVD “Non-Toxic Intaglio Step by Step.” From the very beginning Henrik has been testing and evaluating the non-toxic printmaking methods and materials. The results of his investigations in photopolymer materials and acrylic etching grounds has been published currently through his free electronic newsletters to more than 1500 printmakers around the world. http://www.grafiskeksperimentarium.dk/henrik-boegh/?lang=en
