PhotoImage

by Clifford S. Ackley

PhotoImage explores the use of photographic and photoreproductive imagery in creative printmaking, from Robert Rauschenberg's first lithographs of 1962 to the present. An international cast of some 70 artists - notably Rauschenberg, Richard Hamilton, Gerhardt Richter and Andy Warhol - is represented by prints and books in a great diversity of styles, viewpoints, and media. Clifford Ackley's introductory essay presents a detailed history of each work. Illustrated with 32 color plates and 36 duotones.
