PRINT WORKS HAVE formed the basis of Torsten Jurell’s artistic production, chiefly in the form of linocuts and woodcuts. These graphic techniques offer a happy marriage of drawing with painting and sculpture. A printing plate is, after all, a kind of relief! The prints themselves are rarely produced in editions but are individually hand-printed by the artist himself. That’s why they are seldom numbered.

SMALLER EXHIBITIONS SHOWING woodcutprints have been shown within Sweden for years and in the recent years found a big audience outside Sweden...

This year, 2008, Torsten Jurell started to make drypoint prints. He will study as a project student at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts till June 2009.
