Abstract

The article discusses the concept of printmaking technological archaeology as a methodological process in research and teaching. It examines the origins of a concept that has become part of the academic and artistic activities at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Porto (FBAUP), highlighting the fact that certain graphic processes are not introduced into the workshop space, either due to systematic and historical erasure, or due to a lack of willingness to make correlations with processes used in a commercial, industrial and/or artisanal way, to the detriment of a dogmatic tradition that still exists in the arts.
