Preface

My purpose in writing this studio manual is threefold: to share the latestand until now unpublishedadvancements in printmaking that I have been privileged to witness and discover; to recount personal stories of how these innovations came about, crediting the inventors; and to educate students and professionals alike on safer studio practices and the latest and safest materials available.

My decision to include stories was inspired by Alois Senefelders book A Complete Course of Lithography (published in English translation in 1819), a fascinating account of his discovery and development of lithography, which reveals not only his dedication and passion but also his resolve when faced with failure. A favorite passage concerns his efforts to build one of the first wooden lithography presses, which used a huge stone for leverage: I was soon deterred from farther improving upon this press, as, on one occasion, I had a very narrow escape from being killed by the great stone of 300 pounds, which always fell from a height of ten feet. I was, therefore, easily induced to pursue another plan for constructing a new and perfectly simple printing press, which I had just conceived.

In recent years two issues have posed significant challenges to faculty who teach printmaking in American colleges: the introduction of digital technology and stricter Environmental Protection Agency requirements. My book addresses both of these issues. It will help faculty elevate studio capabilities to a more professional level, giving students access to the latest advancements, including ways of easily and safely combining digital technology with traditional printmaking. This book will also enable printmaking faculty to share responsibility for maintaining a safer studio with their students. It has been my experience that students will rise to the challenge of following safer studio practices if they are given responsibility and knowledge and realize that others are counting on them.

For more than three decades, I have had the good fortune to learn through collaboration with students and professional artists, printers, and technicians. I have taken advantage of the investigative spirit that teaching encourages, spending countless hours researching and experimenting to find new and better ways of making fine art prints. I can only hope that readers who employ these new methods will find them as beneficial as I have.

Many people have helped make this book possible. I first learned printing in my familys newspaper and printing business, where my parents, Ralph and Ruth Pogue, provided a thorough background in letterpress and in offset lithography.
