Choose one work from Chapter 8 of your text that was made after the year 1900 and does not feature the use of inkjet printers. What printmaking process was used to create the work? Compare the work to an older work that used the same process. Discuss how the works are similar and different.
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary depending on the selected printing technique. Consider how the recent work adapts an older process to modern aesthetics. For example, Elizabeth Catlett's Singing Their Songs looks very different from Honoré Daumier's Nadar Elevating Photography to the Heights of Art. Both use the same lithographic process, but Catlett celebrates black culture using modern design elements.
