This book provides the latest never-before-published advancements in the three major printmaking mediums of etching, lithography, and screen-printing. With its focus on health safety practices, green sustainability goals and the new benign bio-based, non-carcinogenic solvents, this book demonstrates how to embrace green materials and practices, without sacrificing the quality of fine art prints.

The book's great appeal is that everyone working in printmaking-faculty, students
and professionals-will be able to find something useful in it. More than that,
however, Pogue's book makes it incumbent on us to act responsibly. Knowledge of
these issues is essential and applying that knowledge is required of all of us. Printmaking Revolution-New Advancements in Technology, Safety and Sustainability is an
essential manual for print practice now.
