George Hawken is a draughtsman and a printmaker specializing in intaglio techniques. His work typically addresses issues of the urban body, and often finds it’s inspiration in literary themes and references which are pursued in series and folios. He has exhibited widely since 1973 and is represented in many public, corporate and private collections, both in this country and internationally. Carlton University in Ottawa has undertaken a comprehensive archive of his Intaglio prints. His work was recently the focus of a solo exhibition at Carleton University Art Gallery, entitled “Urban Skins: The Prints of George Hawken” curated by Jenny McMaster. Hawken is currently engaged in a collaborative printmaking project with Rudolf Bikkers and Noaka Matsubara.
