The vertical format 120 x 40 cm was introduced at the 2018 exhibition in Ceret.
The project consists of a print on the complete layout, all the techniques of engraving are represented. Each engravor gives free rein to his interpretation of the initial theme : "from the parietal to the medevial".
The matching of the works underlines the diversity of creative pleasure and the proficiency of the paper printing constraints.
The diptychs project "From the parietal to the medieval" is the result of the 2018 exhibition in Ceret.
The initial vertical format is doubled, as to provide formats of 120x80cm.
Twenty one enthusiastic engravers embarked on the adventure in order to get the print out of traditional formats.
We thus push our conceptual and technical limits.
In the same creative impulse, we intend, by 2021, to evolve our diptychs into triptychs. Work in progress.

Each artist and writer envisioned what the word "Hemisphere" could mean in his own imagination.
The writings and prints were the subject of a joint exhibition presented at the INSA, at Lyon University 2, at the WM Gallery as well as at the Berthelot center in Lyon. Two exhibitions are scheduled in Brazil (Brasilia and Curribita).
The whole, texts and engraved works has been published in the form of a colour catalogue, always available.
"COMPARATIVE LOOKS ON NATURE" through contemporary French and Brazilian engravings.
On the occasion of the Year of France in Brazil, 2009, L'Empreinte in partnership with a group of Brazilian engravers (from Brasilia, Belém and Sao Paulo) designed and realized an exhibition of 40 artists from both countries presenting the "Comparative Looks On Nature".
Through this Franco-Brazilian exhibition, the merger of two worlds - the old one and the new one - can only relaunch the perception of a nature that we are mostly just able to exploit.
Brazil : Belém, Art gallery de la casa das 11 Janelas , in July 2009. Cultural center Renato Russo in October 2009. France : Library of Lyon 2nd district in September 2011. Multimedia library in January 2014 in Romans (Drôme).
