Maja Ro\u017eman’s solo exhibition “PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES: The Position and Role of Printmaking in Contemporary Art” will open in the PM Gallery of the Home of the Croatian Association of Artists on Thursday, 16 March 2017, at 19:00 h. The exhibition is a part of Maja’s dissertation, mentored by Associate Art Professor Mirjana Vodopija and Ivana Mance, PhD.<\/p>\n

“A Canvas is Never Empty” is Robert Rauchenberg’s statement and the name of the last of the three planned exhibitions related to the exploration of the printmaking medium, which Maja Ro\u017eman has been engaged with in the last couple of years as a part of her doctoral dissertation titled “PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES: The Position and Role of Printmaking in Contemporary Art”. The dissertation was created within the framework of doctoral studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb.<\/p>\n

The entire study is based on the assumption that printmaking is an active participant and initiator of the main developments and trends in contemporary art and that fundamental principles of printmaking can be reinterpreted to achieve a shift from the mere following of tradition towards necessarily more complex phenomenology of printmaking in the context of multimedia art practice.<\/p>\n

The purpose of this research is to inquire into traditional conventions and put to test the boundaries of the printmaking medium; to put forward for consideration a new definition of the term printmaking in accordance with contemporary art practices; and to explore the possibility of realization of printmaking’s conceptual potential within the context of contemporary art.<\/p>\n
