Perspectives on Contemporary Printmaking
This anthology, the first of its kind, presents thirty-two texts on contemporary prints and printmaking written from the mid-1980s to the present by authors from across the world. The texts range from history and criticism to creative writing. More than a general survey, they provide a critical topography of artistic printmaking during the period. The book is directed at an audience of international stakeholders in the field of contemporary print, printmaking and printmedia, including art students, practising artists, museum curators, critics, educationalists, print publishers and print scholars. It expands debate in the field and will act as a starting point for further research.

Technologies of Intuition
The term, "intuition," while commonly used by artists has been somewhat marginalized within art theory and criticism. Whether sensed as a gut feeling or a flash of insight, intuition is central to processes of "coming to know" in aesthetic practice and experience. Many artists habitually rely on extra-rational means of understanding, either in the form of everyday instinct or uncanny cognition. A delicate balance, though, exists between clairvoyance and fantasy, foreknowledge and wishful thinking. Technologies of Intuition demonstrates how artistic sensitivity requires disciplined and cultivated perception. Set in continuity with the compelling history of the Spiritualist Movement and emancipatory feminism, this anthology elucidates intuitive agency as a psychic, somatic and social technology in the fine arts and popular culture.
The Printmaking Ideas Book
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.
