Graphicstudio: The Cutting-edge Print Workshop

We visit the innovative Florida atelier, Graphicstudio. Robert Mapplethorpe, Ed Ruscha, Robert Rauschenberg, Kenny Scharf, Leonora Carrington, Alex Katz, Jim Dine. The list of artists who have collaborated with Graphicstudio—a print workshop on the campus of the University of South Florida in the city of Tampa—goes on and on. Over the last five decades, more than 100 artists have passed through its doors. ‘Graphicstudio is a byword for innovative fine art editions,’ says Christie’s Prints and Multiples Head of Sale Lindsay Griffith. ‘The workshop has collaborated with some of the most important artists across the world to explore new methods, inventing several of its own printing techniques in the process. It continues to work with upcoming names.’
