Københavns Grafiske Værksted is an association whose purpose is to run a graphic workshop together. The association is founded at the Factory for Art and Design. The workshop is set up so that you can work with both high-pressure and gravure printing techniques such as e.g. woodcuts, linoleum prints, etchings, photogravure. The members are visual artists/graphic artists who have professional knowledge of various graphic techniques and use them as an essential part of their artistic work.
