Welcoming the Stedelijk Museum

This presentation of works from the Stedelijk Museum is dedicated to the 'druksel prints' of Hendrik Nicolaas Werkman (1882-1945). In these 'druksels' from the 1920s the artist developed a technique born of a passion for the printer's trade that was simultaneously new, simple and sophisticated. Werkman printed parts of a print one at a time to compile his total image on the page.

The presentation also shows graphics from the 1930s and from the period spanning the Second World War, prints for which Werkman is most well known. The presentation will be accompanied by a publication containing Werkman’s correspondence with his most important artist friends.
