Scottish artist Barbara Rae (b. 1943) is renowned for her vivid, expressionistic paintings and graphic works. In this book, the first comprehensive study of Rae's prints, Andrew Lambirth charts her development as a printmaker, from her early experiments at Edinburgh College of Art to her recent collaboration with Coriander Studios, one of Europe's most highly regarded producers of limited-edition artists' prints. Commentaries from the master printers with whom Rae has worked offer a fascinating insight into her practice, while the artist's own observations reveal the important relationship between her printmaking and her painting. Illustrated with key prints from throughout Rae's career, this book celebrates the art of one of Britain's most gifted and original printmakers.
