Academie NPIP på Bastard Gallery 5-9 maj
2009
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Bastard Gallery, in collaboration with New
Print International Publisher (NPIP), Samuel Nyholm and Nazareno
Crea, gives a four-day workshop of analog printing technologies,
for 15 students, from the Fine art and Graphic Design institutions
at Konstfack, Advertising and Graphic design at Beckmans, and Fine
art at the Royal Art Academy in Stockholm and the ECAL in
Lausanne.
The NPIP philosophy is to rationalize and control
as much as possible of the printing process and to carry out a
large part of the work on their own, which works fine as long as
the edition is not too extensive (which is generally the case in
cultural contexts). The most sensible option can also, like in the
case of "Dolls", a catalogue produced by NPIP for the video artist
Annika Larsson last year, be a combination of cheap digital
printing and analogue interventions, where the printing process
also includes the narrative elements of the book. The benefits of
this thinking is not only that the designer may retain a larger
share of the budget, but also allow more room for experimentation
with materials, techniques and content.
The purpose of the academy is to deepen the
students and our own practical and philosophical point of view
connected to primitive printing techniques, with emphasis on a
playful approach, implemented into rational and applied
practise.
The workshop consists of four days of production,
between 6th and 9th of May and a final evaluation party on the
evening of the 9th of May, including musical entertainment, 19-23,
everything taking place inside the gallery. It will also be
possible to buy and borrow various publication affiliated to the
workshop and it's participants.

The gallery is open for the public 15-19 during
the workshop. 19-23 on Saturday the 9th of
May.
