In this episode Miranda speaks with Justin Sanz. Justin is the workshop manager at the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop in New York City. He’s been involved with the institution for 15 years and he guides us through the fascinating life of Robert Blackburn, his contributions to contemporary printmaking, and the history of the workshop. We also talk about the ways in which those of us in the print world can recognize and address the history of racial inequality in the arts, how the workshop strives to honor the legacy of Robert Blackburn and his commitment to integration, and the ways in which they are keeping the shop going in the time of COVID and social distancing.
