SYLVIA PLIMACK MANGOLD: ARTIST The Creation of an Etching and Aquatint VIEW ONLINE When Esopus invited Sylvia Plimack Mangold to create a project for this special issue, the artist sent an email with the following proposal: “At the moment I’m working on an etching based on a watercolor done in the summer. I’m often trying to explain to people how the process works and just how much effort an artist and a printer put into such a project. I thought maybe we could do something that in some way demonstrates this process.” Plimack Mangold and her longtime printer, Doris Siimmelink, offer a glimpse of the nearly four-month collaboration that resulted in the exquisite etching and aquatint Pin Oak Crown (2006). Artist Sylvia Plimack Mangold’s paintings, drawings, and prints have been the subject of a number of museum retrospectives, one-person exhibitions, and monographs over the past 30 years; her work resides in many major public and private collections. The recipient of an NEA grant, she has taught at the Yale University School of Art and at New York City’s School of Visual Arts. Represented by Alexander and Bonin in New York City, Plimack Mangold lives and works in Washingtonville, NY.
