"This book is a welcome attempt to look beyond familiar names and high profile institutions, to discover what is happening at 'the edge'."

Product Description
Printmaking at the Edge explores the innovative techniques printmakers are using today. The topics covered range from the challenges of new technology and materials (for example, the latest high-tech plates and speciality papers and inks) to the persistence of traditional techniques and the new directions they are taking (for example, digital techniques being used with silkscreen and wood engraving). All scales and stages of printmaking are dealt with. This book is a vital source of information for students and includes interviews with prominent international artists, revealing the secrets behind their work and the possibilities for the future. Included is the work of artists from UK, USA, Canada, Japan, Poland, Argentina, Nicaragua, Belgium, Lithuania, Iceland, Austria, Finland, Sweden, Iraq, Korea, Taiwan and Australia.

Printmaking, that encourages thought and experimentation
18 Feb 2011
Format:Hardcover
I recently received this book for 2010 christmas, and I am thrilled to see the inventive ways in which global artists are transforming printmaking into contemporary works of art. This book focuses on 10-15 artists and their method for printmaking, and context of work. I like to see what contemporary artists are doing by taking the modern print out of the frame and using printmaking mediums to develop large scale projects, installations, and sculptural artworks that barely resemble a traditional print. I enjoy all printmaking books, and I am glad to add this to my collection, as these collaborative installations are becoming more popular in local art cultural centers.
