Abstract

What happens in the art schools perhaps from photography animation etc, technologywise genetically they belong to printmaking. Essence wise animation has a different language every ambiguous definition of printmaking discourses. Otherwise, printmaking is what troubles the pedagogic discourse.otherwise printmaking taken should be taken as an idea where the original work when it is not copied when it is not reproduced manually or mechanically that is the philosophy of printmaking. It is what is like john Berger may be famous with his ideas, in ‘ways of seeing ’. Printmaking if you take it I that sense I think it belongs to all department in art education.
