Contemporary prints by some of the 270 members of Hot Bed Press Printmakers’ Studio in Salford. This diverse variety of original screenprints, etchings, relief prints, monoprints, and collagraphs give an insight into why more and more artists are turning to printmaking. The subject matter and styles range from interpretations of landscapes to figurative work and onto more abstract and ethereal responses to colour and composition. The nature of the methods of printmaking used by each artist can influence the development of their works as the interaction and relationship to materials, chemicals, inks and papers take their place in the creative thought and decision making process. The passion for print soon takes hold.
About the Hot Bed Press
Hot Bed Press is now one of the largest open access print studios in the UK. In early 2017, supported by a grant from Arts Council England, they were successful in purchasing the large Victorian warehouse building they have made their home since 2006. Set amongst the newly sprawling metropolis joining Salford with Manchester for an independent not-for-profit organisation to now own and manage a building of this size to grow into and flourish in is a huge statement.
