Here are some of the vibrant prints you'll encounter in "Ruth Asawa: Retrospective," created during her artist residency at The Tamarind Lithography Workshop in 1965. Asawa drew or painted directly on slabs of limestone or aluminum plates with a waxy pencil, crayon, or liquid ink, after which the printers would fix the image, ink the stone or plate, and pass the sheets of paper through the press. After a day's work Asawa often cooked for her collaborators at her apartment before returning to the press. While never again focusing as intensively on printmaking as she did during her summer at Tamarind, Asawa remained convinced of the merits of the medium, resisting "the myth that the crafts and printmaking are less important than painting and sculpture. A good piece is important regardless of category." ruthasawaofficial Ruth Asawa, "Poppy (TAM.1479)," 1965, The Museum of Modern Art, New York, gift of Kleiner, Bell & Co., 1967 The Museum of Modern Art, New York, gift of Kleiner, Bell...
