About the book

"When artists began making prints in bright colors and previously unimaginable formats and sizes in the 1960s, they launched an explosion of printed imagery in the United States. A new generation of artists was already incorporating printmaking techniques into their paintings, and this, in combination with ordinary, everyday subject matter, led art, and the practice of art, in radical new directions. At the same time, a number of technically savvy entrepreneurs established printmaking workshops across the United States, and coaxed sometimes recalcitrant painters and sculptors to experiment with making prints. Under these circumstances, printmaking rapidly expanded from a standard set of processes into an increasingly complex field of possibilities, adapting industrial technologies and nontraditional materials, both to respond to new aspirations and to achieve new goals. 'Graphic Revolution: American Prints 1960 to Now' explores this transformational decade and those that followed, drawing exclusively from St. Louis collections."
