The contents are bright, tight, white and square. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. This catalogue presents an overview of American printmaking in the first half of the twentieth century, beginning in 1905 with John Sloan’s etchings of everyday urban experience, dubbed the Ashcan School, and concluding with Jackson Pollock and abstract expressionist prints. About 140 powerful prints by approximately 75 artists will be featured. A substantial introduction sets the prints in context, showing how this dynamic tradition arose and how it relates to other media such as magazine illustration, photography, cinema and poster design. Biographies of all the artists are included. Stephen Coppel is Assistant Keeper in the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum, responsible for the modern collection. He is author of Linocuts of the Machine Age. Ref G, Books<
