Eleven years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Yozo Hamaguchi generously endowed a fund at California College of the Arts for the purpose of granting annual awards to outstanding students in printmaking.
Mr. Hamaguchi was a renowned master of color mezzotint printmaking, an esoteric form of intaglio printmaking invented in the 1600s. Mr. Hamaguchi is credited with reviving this form of printmaking in the 20th century.
The purpose of the awards is to foster excellence and dedication in the study and practice of printmaking at the college.
Jurors: Mikae Hara, Greg Piatt, and Arthur Okamura.
