The Graphic Arts Workshop (GAW) of San Francisco, a cooperative print studio, is located in the Dogpatch neighborhood.[1] The studio has approximately 40 members working in fine art printmaking techniques such as lithography, intaglio, serigraphs, and relief printing.[2] GAW offers affordable printmaking studio access and printmaking classes.[2]

History

GAW was founded in 1952 by several artists from the California Labor School.[3] The founding members of GAW include: Pele De Lappe, Victor Arnautoff, Emmy Lou Packard, Byron Randall, Stanley Koppel, Louise Gilbert, Ed Hanson, Virginia Bogue, Claus Sievert, Frank Rowe, and Irving Fromer.[3][4] Many of the early printmakers at GAW were interested in left-wing leaning politics, Communism, social movements, and the labor movement and as a result they produced images of political, social, labor, and ethnic themes.[5] When the California Labor School closed in 1957, GAW inherited a lot of printmaking tools and supplies.[6][7]
