We are collaborative printers based in Chicago. We work with artists who like to draw. The processes we use—lithography, relief, etching and screenprinting (and now graphic ceramic techniques!)—extend new possibilities to preserve and transform the artist’s marks. Creating multiples allows us to sell the original work we produce at an affordable price. Print partners Liz Born and Gabe Hoare founded Hoofprint in 2012.
Gabe Hoare is a Chicago-based artist working primarily in lithography. His work is a reflection of the absurd world we inhabit. Anthropomorphic tugboats, animals, and mutated fast food touch upon themes of greed, gluttony and ignorance.
Liz Born is a Chicago-based printmaker and ceramicist. Her drawings feature defiant figures, hands on hips. Her work has been displayed at venues including The Chicago Cultural Center and Jane Addams Hull House Museum.
