Abstract

In the showcase space.

Together with George Baldessin, Tate Adams established the Crossley Print Workshop in 1973 where printmakers could produce and edition work for Crossley Gallery. Following the closure of the Crossley Print Workshop in 1977, Adams and Baldessin established Lyre Bird Press to produce Livres d’artistes, a concept that was firmly ensconced in France, but to this day has limited reception in Australia.

To date, Lyre Bird Press has produced 28 publications, by artists including John Brack, Fred Williams, John Olsen, George Baldessin, Juli Haas, Robert Jacks, Allan Mitelman, Jock Clutterbuck, and Jan Senbergs.
