IT'S NOT JUST MEDICINE - AN INTERVIEW WITH RUNE K DREWSEN

Last week I had the chance to meet up with the Danish graphic designer Rune K Drewsen during his brief visit to Budapest.

Perspectives on Serigraphs

This past year has been an exciting one for Printa. Since opening in January 2010, the Budapest based screenprinting studio has exhibited numerous works from the likes of the Swiss Urban Salon and Supalife. To celebrate their first birthday, Printa is exhibiting a collection of limited edition serigraphs produced by some of Hungary’s finest contemporary artists.

Exploring the mediums of watercolour painting, street art, photography, drawing and graphic art, the majority of the pieces were produced specifically for the exhibition and were created in the Printa workshop.

A day in the Printa Studio

I was very fortunate to have a private tour of the Printa workshop and gallery this afternoon and even managed to get myself the last copy of their Perspectives on Serigraphs promotional screenprints. The multi-purpose cafe/gallery/printworks/shop celebrated its 1st birthday back in December and is currently displaying a selection of works by the likes of Budha Tomi, Eperjesi Ágnes and Mécs Miklós.  I'll be posting a full review of the exhibition in the next few days so make sure you're following my blog to find out all about it.
