The Printmaking Ideas Book, Paperback/Ilex Press

Description Be inspired by this vast range of experimental printing ideas. Printmaking has been part of the artist's arsenal for centuries. Goya, Du rer, M. C. Escher, Rembrandt, Toulouse-Lautrec, Van Gogh, Picasso, Lichtenstein, Edvard Munch, Andy Warhol and Pierre Bonnard - to name but a few - were advocates. The scope of printmaking is vast. The Printing Ideas Book explores the different processes available to artists - such as screenprinting, etching, lithography, risography, collagraphy, linocut, cyanotypes, woodcut, aquatint, monoprints, digital printing, drypoint and engraving - from a new and exciting angle. To celebrate the art of printmaking, this book is filled to the brim with experimental, arresting and beautiful examples of printing from all over the world.
