She studies the rock until she sees some part of the stone’s shape that gives a hint at who is inside. Her initial cuts release the head from the stone. With the head identifi ed, the lines of the body emerge. Often, part of the surface remains untouched and occasionally she adds texture to combine with smooth planes and lines to arrive at the strongest possible image.

  • International Print Collectors' Societies Newsletter from the Editor
    International Print Collectors’ Societies Newsletter Vol. XIV, No. 1 January 2017 From the Editor Those of you with eagle eyes may notice changes and a new addition to our roster. I am pleased to welcome The Print Club of Rochester as they join us here among the IPCS at the beginning of 2017. Heather Swenson will be providing their updates while also serving as the Vice President of their Club. I know I am happy to extend our reach and have them as part of our group. Coincidentally, in addition to Rochester, I was also recently contacted by another group in Iowa, so my hope is that we’ll have yet another addition before the year is up. I’d also like to welcome a new contributor on behalf of the Print Club of Cleveland, Samantha Mishe. With some new faces and perspectives, I am sure we can look forward to some good reading ahead. In this issue, I’d like to call out some encouraging community-building efforts with long- term impact. The Montreal Print Society has established a scholarship fund with Concordia University to give $1000 to a senior BFA student over the next five years. And the Washington Print Club has instituted a new initiative of gifting $1000 to a student enrolled in a printmaking program at one of the local institutions. This year the gift will go to a student at the Maryland College of Fine Art in Baltimore. Kudos to each of your groups for supporting up-and-coming printmakers in the next generation. Primarily I enjoy reading through the different gallery talks, studio visits, and other sorts of membership gatherings among the different societies.

This series aims to further our understanding of the origins, dealings, decisions, and outcomes of social movements by fostering dialogue among many traditions of thought, across European nations and across continents. All theoretical perspectives are welcome. Books in the series typically combine theory with empirical research, dealing with various types of mobilization, from neighborhood groups to revolutions. We especially welcome work that synthesizes or compares different approaches to social movements, such as cultural and structural traditions, micro- and macro-social, economic and ideal, or qualitative and quantitative. Books in the series will be published in English. One goal is to encourage non- native speakers to introduce their work to Anglophone audiences. Another is to maximize accessibility: all books will be available in open access within a year after printed publication. Series Editors Jan Willem Duyvendak is professor of Sociology at the University of Amsterdam. James M. Jasper teaches at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.
