A worldwide guide to more than 500 contemporary papers for art, design, and decoration. This authoritative guide showcases the finest papers in the world today. In clear and engaging language, Silvie Turner conveys the excitement of discovering sheets one never knew existed. Her book is an international compendium for artists, designers, and crafts people who want to know about fine papers--where and how they are made, their character, what they can be used for, and where to find them. The essence of each paper is discussed in detail, concentrating on handmades but also covering moldmades and fine machinemades. The author explains their manufacture, then provides descriptions and, in most cases, full specifications for each named paper. She advises on practicalities--how to store, fold, cut, tear, paste, preserve, and repair paper--and considers their uses, looking at dedicated sheets (for watercolor, drawing, etching, bookmaking, computer output) as well as decorative stock. The color plates display the rich diversity of papers--from shades of white and neutral to the intense hues of dyed stock, from fine-grained sheets through delicate papers with flowers and grasses to wild and rough Costa Rican handmades. Illustrations in the text show ingredients that go into paper and methods used in countries throughout the world. Best of all, firsthand experience of modern fine papers is provided by a selection of samples, mounted so that their weight and texture can be felt. The book includes an explanation of sizes and weights, a glossary, and full indexes. A special feature is the comprehensive list of makers, sellers, and sources of information about paper.

Papermaking by hand is carried on professionally by only a small number of dedicated papermakers around the world. Yet the craft of papermaking attracts interest from many areas - bookmakers, calligraphers, artists, teachers, sculptors, and printers. The problem has always been where to buy supplies and machinery. Here, at last, is a book that lists sources of equipment and products worldwide for the hand papermaker. It addresses professionals and amateurs alike, listing sources of supply for all types of fibers, pulps, stampers, beaters, moulds and deckles, vats, felts and presses, dyes and pigments. It also lists papermaking kits, Japanese and oriental supplies, vacuum systems, pulp sprayers, paper information resources, workshops, magazines, and videos. (7 3/4 X 10, 112 pages, b&amp;w photos, illustrations, diagrams)

Trevelyan had no formal art training but joined Hayter's atelier in Paris in 1931 where he worked alongside artists such as Ernst, Kokoschka, Masson, Miro and Picasso. The etching processes learnt in Hayter's atelier were radically different from anything that had been achieved in the medium previously, and in this atmosphere he became a Surrealist overnight. In 1937, he joined Tom Harrisson's Mass Observation movement which was also to have a profound effect on his work. Between 1955 and 1963, Trevelyan worked at the Royal College of Art where he became Head of the Etching Department. Not only was he a highly influential teacher (his students included David Hockney, Ron Kitaj and Norman Ackroyd), but he was an important innovator of modern print techniques and today is increasingly regarded as the quiet driving force behind the etching revolution of the 1960s.

Julian Trevelyan (1910-1988) was a distinguished artist and printmaker known for his Surrealist prints of the 1930s. Despite this acclaim, it was in fact in rural and industrial landscapes that he truly found excitement and pleasure as an artist. Trevelyan had no formal art training but joined Hayter's atelier in Paris in 1931 where he worked alongside artists such as Ernst, Kokoschka, Masson, Miro and Picasso. The etching processes learnt in Hayter's atelier were radically different from anything that had been achieved in the medium previously, and in this atmosphere be became a Surrealist overnight. In 1937, he joined Tom Harrisson's Mass Observation movement which was also to have a profound effect on his work. Between 1955 and 1963, Trevelyan worked at the Royal College of Art where he became Head of the Etching Department. Not only was he a highly influential teacher, teaching students such as David Hockney, Ron Kitaj and Norman Ackroyd, but he was an important innovator of modern print techniques and today is increasingly regarded as the quiet driving force behind the etching revolution of the 1960s. Trevelyan was brilliantly inventive and possessed a wit and innocence of eye that could discover enchantment in the most mundane scenes. His prints, brought together here for the first time, illustrate his astonishing imagination and marvellous spirit of adventure. This beautifully designed book is a celebratory tribute to his life and work in printmaking. This book is published to coincide with two major retrospectives of Julian Trevelyan's work.
