Postcards

This survey explores ways artists across Europe have turned to printed mediums, from woodcut to wallpaper, in a quest to expand their creative thinking. It presents the work of 118 artists, collectives, and journals from twenty countries in thematic sections, accompanied by in-depth texts that place this work in a historical context. Traditional etchings, lithographs, and screenprints as well as unusual book formats, editioned sculptural objects, postcards, and even shopping bags and record jackts are represented, demonstrating the vitality artists have brought to printed art in the contemporary period.
