Origins and History
Contemporary Urban Printmaking emerged in the late 20th century as a response to the rise of urbanization and the changing social and political landscape. Its origins can be traced back to the 1970s and 1980s, when a new generation of artists began to experiment with printmaking techniques and use them to address issues such as gentrification, racism, and inequality. The movement gained momentum in the 1990s, with the advent of digital technology and the proliferation of street art and graffiti.
