When we talk about visual art, the most popular ones that pop up are painting and sculpture. But there is another major art form that is being overlooked specially in Davao City, it is printmaking.
Printmaking has a rich history. Most people may envision traditional printing when discussing this kind of art form. The recent art exhibit “Nature in Print” at the visitors’ center of Azuela Cove aims to showcase the beauty of printmaking. “The idea is everyday panibagong art method ang natutunan ng mga participants. I am surprised sa participation ng mga local artists kasi they were very enthusiastic in learning the methods,” he said in an interview.
He was also grateful that the Dabawenyo participants were very receptive to learning something new that is something really old. “I love printmaking because it is an old technique but at the same time you can apply it to new ideas that you can spread to more people. Unlike other art forms that have intrinsic value, ang printmaking has the advantage of creating art multiples and we don’t call it reproduction or xerox or duplicate, we call it art multiple,” Dela Cruz said.
