. About the Author Deborah Wye is the Chief Curator of the Department of Prints and Illustrated Books at The Museum of Modern Art, New YorkExploring the role of prints, deluxe illustrated books, inexpensive artist's books, and editioned multiples in contemporary art, this exceptionally comprehensive volume covers 235 works by some 147 artists, and includes essays on techniques, formats, and themes, as well as biographic notes on all of the artists and publishers. From Barbara Kruger's screenprinted feminist billboards to Felix Gonzalez-Torres's stacks of posters featuring head shots of people killed by guns; from Elizabeth Murray's colorful abstract lithographs to Anselm Kiefer's woodcuts embedded in Germany history; from Lucian Freud's moody figure study etchings to Donald Judd's rigid, monochromatic, serially geometric woodcuts--Thinking Printis a broad, ambitious, and varied survey of printed art from the last two decades . Originally published on the occasion of a 1996 exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.

I wish Byron Putman would come out of the woodwork and publish another similar book on 802.11n Hands on Analysis.Byron, Encore!. The final paper in the book is Professor Buchanan's Nobel lecture. This adaptive learning component allowed me to improve a whole letter grade. And while I agree that it could be given a true five star rating, portions of the book just seemed so distracting to me that it actually took away from the readin
