The SACI Gallery presents:
Impermanence
Mezzotints and Photogravures by
Eduardo Fausti
July 4-30, 2011
Opening: Monday, July 4 at 8pm
Eduardo Fausti studied printmaking at SACI in 1993. He was born in Argentina but emigrated to the United States, where he received his BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute. He has had an increasingly successful career as an artist, including many one-person exhibitions. At the SACI Gallery, he is exhibiting for the first time a series of small mezzotints of the faces of monks whom he has met on his travels through Southeast Asia. Mezzotint is a not often used technique in which the etching plate is roughened to produce a high quality of richness and half tones. This complicated and highly demanding technique limits the number of prints that can be made from a plate before the quality of the print starts to degrade.
The SACI Gallery is open Monday to Friday 9am-7pm,
Saturday and Sunday 1-7pm.
