The cutting edge of modernity

"The Cutting Edge of Modernity offers an insightful overview of the principle artists of the linocutting movement and discusses how they varied in their treatment of subject matter and technical approach. The process of linocutting is examined, including the various papers and inks that were employed. The comprehensive notes for collectors, which include a list of the prints made by the artists, will be invaluable for collectors and print enthusiasts alike. Illustrated in colour throughout with over fifty illustrations of these remarkable prints, The Cutting Edge of Modernity is a book for all those with an interest in printmaking and twentieth-century British art."--Jacket.
