Steven Sorman, who is both a painter and printmaker, earned his BFA from the University of Minnesota in 1971. Since 1994, Sorman has lived and worked in Ancram, New York. He is best known for his multimedia, complex paintings, drawings, and prints. Sorman won the Bush Foundation Artists Fellowship in 1979, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Merit World Print III Award in 1980, the Rockefeller Foundation American Center Artist in Residence in Paris in 1982, and the 2nd Bhrat Bhavan International Biennial of Prints Merit Award in 1991. He is represented in many major museums and private collections.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sorman is particularly interested in materials and the mixing of unexpected textures, marks, and colors. Working with such an artist requires particular flexibility, as the effects the artist may want to achieve are often challenging to a printer. The artist arrived with drawings, which he translated in the studio into an etching that was overprinted with a lithograph on the flat bed offset press. Dwight Pogue served as Master Printer for the lithograph, assisted by Technical Assistant Mark Zunino. Sorman completed the edition in his studio, adding woodcut, collage, and hand coloring to a small finished edition of ten prints.<\/span><\/p>\n
