Intersections and Counterpoints: Proceedings of Impact 7, an International Multidisciplinary Printma

Contemporary printmaking is a rapidly changing field of artistic practice. It encompasses cuttingedge digital technologies as well as centuriesold techniques of representation. It is at the forefront of current redefinitions of the expanding mediums of artistic and everyday expression, from the traditional book to the electronic image. Intersections and Counterpoints: Proceedings of the Impact 7 International MultiDisciplinary Printmaking Conference provides a survey of recent developments in printmaking practices throughout the world. Ninetysix authors, including many of the world's leading authorities, address key themes in the practice, theory and history of the print including: pedagogy and the industries that surround the print; artists' engagement with new technologies; the evolving materials, processes and techniques of printmaking; the artist's book; the print's relation to history, memory and the archive; and the status of authorship, collaboration and reproduction in printmaking today. The book is essential reading for anyone interested in the past, present and future of the print.
