The Yale School of Art’s Painting/Printmaking program seeks an artist to teach undergraduate – and graduate – level printmaking. Salary approximately 65,000 dollars. To begin July 1, 2008. Applicants must have a record of creative accomplishment and teaching expertise in traditional techniques (linocut, woodcut, etching, lithography, silkscreen) as well as digital and hybrid media.
