Graphic Studio: Contemporary Art from the Collaborative Workshop at the University of South Florida - Softcover

Published in conjunction with an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art, this book celebrates the diversity of the collaborative projects undertaken by GRAPHICSTUDIO. Donald Saff, founder and director of GRAPHICSTUDIO for much of its history, brought together artists like Dine, Shapiro, Mapplethorpe, Rauschenberg, and Close with professional printers and other technicians to produce sculptures, prints, and mixed media editions. The authors provide a history of the studio and discuss both individual editions and the technical prowess required to execute them. This catalog is an excellent history of an important enterprise, its only flaw an unbalanced, noncritical approach to the art works discussed. For special collections.
