Abstract

New Australian Printmaking, a project by the NGV and Australian Print Workshop, features new work by artists Megan Cope, Shaun Gladwell, Tim Maguire and Patricia Piccinini, each a recipient of an Australian Print Workshop Artist Fellowship. With varied experiences in printmaking, these artists, through their collaborations with APW's master printers, reveal the rich possibilities of the print medium.

With a lead essay by Quentin Sprague, and new essays by NGV curators Jessica Cole, Maggie Finch, Shonae Hobson and Katharina Prugger; more than 60 images of the artists' work reproduced in full colour; an interview with APW printers Martin King and Simon White; and documentary photographs, New Australian Printmaking reveals the many ways in which the print medium continues to dynamically enhance contemporary art practice.

Published in association with the exhibition New Australian printmaking, developed by the NGV and the Australia Print Workshop, and held at The Ian Potter Centre: NVG Australia Federation Square, Melbourne, 13 May 2022-11 September 2022.
