Podcasts about Vandercook

In this episode of the Platemark, I interview Mike Stark, the co-founder and owner of Stark Press Company. The New Jersey-based company, run by Mike and his brother Tom, builds new presses, services old presses, and aids in moving them. They often collaborate with Perry Tymeson, a legendary press repairman. Mike shares insights into designing new presses, managing a small business, and balancing creative work. We talk about studying print media at SAIC in Chicago and establishing Stark Press. We talk about his experiences in moving heavy presses, sometimes in challenging conditions, and the special bonds within the printmaking ecosystem. www.starkpressco.com @iammikestark @pinklinepress @starkpressco Mike Stark and Tom Stark, Stark Press Company.
