Opacity & Translucency: Letterpress Printing on Handmade Paper

 

Number two in Hand Papermaking's series
of distinctive portfolios of handmade papers...

Opacity & Translucency:
Letterpress Printing on Handmade Paper

A unique collection of individual and collaborative efforts featuring creative interaction between the paper and the printing, resulting in works of art that break new ground and exemplify the finest traditional techniques.

Sixteen juried works produced by thirty-two respected papermakers and printers are showcased in a custom clamshell box produced by BookLab. Accompanied by a booklet containing statements from each of the artists and a commissioned essay by Sandra Kirshenbaum (editor of Fine Print). Juried by Cathleen A. Baker (Dard Hunter biographer), Margaret Ahrens Sahlstrand (paper and book artist, professor emeritus at Central Washington University, and proprietor of ICOSA Studio and Papermill), and Michael Peich (proprietor of Aralia Press, a literary fine press, at West Chester University, PA).

Designed by Steve Miller. All proceeds benefit Hand Papermaking, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing traditional and contemporary ideas in the art of hand papermaking.

The edition of 150 is now sold out.
