Jim Dine: A Printmaker's Document (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783869306445)

"Inspired by a semi-autobiographical book by the mid-twentieth century German printmaker HAP Grieshaber, I have used his idea to create a story of 50 years as a printmaker. The book includes interviews with my printers and memories of my life around the prints I made at that time. I have made over 1,000 prints so far and I am not done yet. There are key images illustrated, and the text attempts to marry the technical with my emotional feeling for the mediums, etching, lithography, woodcut and silkscreen. I have included recipes for variations on intaglio and some stories of my friendships with these gifted artisans who have produced this work." --Jim Dine
