Q: Does PrintZero Studios have a studio? if so, where?
A: Well, we are glad you asked. PrintZero has just acquired a studio space in Seattle’s Georgetown area. It is located at 1480 Airport Way South C. Visit our studio page for more information and a map.
Q: Does PrintZero Studios rent press time?
A: Contact Brian Lane at printzero2@gmail.com.
A:
- International money order.
- Change your money to US dollars and send cash. (we do not recommend this one)
- International artists will be able to pay online via Paypal.
Q: Is there a jury process or do I just send in my work?
A: No, we do not jury the prints. Any artist who sends in 15 prints (which
adhere to all of the stated guidelines) will be a part of the exchange and subsequent exhibitions.
Q: Why no solely digital work?
A: Though we at PrintZero Studios believe that digital printmaking is a valid artform, we also want to promote the traditional processes that preceeded it. We believe that these processes form the backbone of printmaking.
Q: Why is there a received by deadline and not a postmarked deadline?
A: Unfortunately we tried this approach once and had to extend so many deadlines due to mail coming in from overseas. We have found it keeps our timelines easier to keep if we are not waiting on a few straggling editions that the postal service may have misplaced.
Q: Why do I only receive 13 prints back, if I am sending in 15?
A: Print Zero Studios keeps 2 copies of each edition for exhibitions and archives. This allows for 2 simultaneous shows.
Q: How did you start PrintZero Studios?
A: A discussion between Brian and Jeremy over a Guiness…like all good ideas. It was a passion for art and a common goal to generate interest in printmaking and promote the artform.
