Prints & printmaking

The complete prints and multiples of one of Britain's most influential artists.

Sir Michael Craig-Martin is one of Britian's most celebrated and influential artists working today. To coincide with a major retrospective exhibition at the Royal Academy, this volume is the catalogue raisonné of Craig-Martin's entire work in print and multiples.

Having produced his earliest prints in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the artist has made printmaking an important part of his practice for the past thirty-five years, alongside his distinctive wall pieces, paintings, and sculptures. Screenprints, letter-press, pigment prints lightboxes and computer works all present his familiar signature style of everyday objects drawn in outline and often in intense saturated colours. A text by the acclaimed writer Michael Bracewell considers the significance of prints and printmaking in Craig-Martin's work.

Featuring high-quality reproductions of almost 300 works, this book is the complete resource for specialist and general reader alike.
