Dan Grzeca is a Chicago-born illustrator and printmaker (b. 1968). He has been screenprinting since the mid-nineties, contributing to the nascent and then burgeoning roster of Chicago Poster makers by creating a visual documentation of the Free and Improvised music being made by Ken Vandermark, The Peter Brötzmann Chicago Tentet,and Caffeine among others. He has gone on to make work for big, famous bands, but still gets the most satisfaction out of making work that ties into music produced by talented friends. His idiosyncratic style is achieved using pencil and scratchboard drawing techniques which are then transferred to screens for multi-layered printing. Dan spends a lot of time thinking about the screenprinting process in both a painterly and stripped down way, attempting to achieve aesthetic freedom by limiting choices in the composition process. Success to him is measured by visual boldness, stark imagery, subtle color layers, and ink-stained clothing.

I am primarily a letterpress and relief printer. My artistic and professional work is centered on text and I have been printing, designing, and collaborating on broadsides, posters, books, and other poetic printed concerns since 1999. I was the studio printer for Audrey Niffenegger from 2002 until 2011. I editioned many intaglio prints and produced one of a kind letterpress printed works under her direction.

My prints are made with wood type and usually hand-carved linoleum cuts or plates made from my original drawings, printed on Vandercook presses. I almost exclusively print poster-sized work (posters, broadsides, larger prints). I've also co-taught "Posters that Rock" letterpress class locally. I'm the founder/director of an artist residency program based in Logan Sq, TRANSIT, and in addition to having print invitationals annually, we're offering our first "outbound" residency this fall: two weeks at Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum.
