Matrix: Contemporary Printmaking - Museum of Fine Arts - Florida ...

Fall 2009
LETTER TO EDUCATORS
Dear Leon County Educators,
The Florida State University Museum of Fine Arts would like to invite you
to attend our upcoming exhibit. The exhibit will be held in the Fall of 2009, and it
will highlight the print collection that the Museum of Fine Arts possesses. It will
also include prints from outside artists.
This packet will focus on the different types of prints, different uses of
prints, and it will also explore the differences between printmaking throughout
history and today. During the exhibit the museum will be offering guided tours and
events to help educators teach their students about the museum and the exhibit.
For tours and group information, contact Viki Thompson Wylder at (850) 644-
1299.
In this packet you will find a wealth of information to help you prepare your
students for a trip to the museum, or simply just spend a day teaching them about
printmaking. The packet includes informational articles, artist biographies, lesson
plans, a glossary of terms, and a list of prints being included in the exhibit. All
images included in this packet are for educational use only.
This packet is in accordance with Florida’s Sunshine State Standards, and
we hope it will be helpful to you in your classroom.
