IRA CUMMINGS – ARTIST
By G Santos
Ira Cummings is a printmaker, designer and cyclist. An initial infatuation with the German Expressionists’ woodcuts became a love-affair with a medium. Ira’s current body of work focuses on merging the careful practice of printmaking with the immediacy and visceral qualities of drawing. He can be found most weeks working on a wonderful Takach etching press larger than a European compact car. He has worked and taught in Vermont and Massachusetts. He is also the Founder and Co-Editor of WorkingProof.org – a resource for printmakers.
