Synopsis
This text deals with the vulnerability of the artist to toxins, asphyxiants, anaesthetics, acute and chronic reactions to toxin substances, and carcinogens. It argues that artists and craftspeople need to be aware of the many physical and chemical hazards of their craft. Written by artists for artists, this text, as well as identifying hazards, goes on to offer safer techniques and materials that don't compromise the quality of the art. Advice is offered on how to set up a safe studio and evaluate workplace hazards, and there is also a quick-reference alphabetical list of art material chemicals, including degree of toxicity, symptoms, precautions, substitutes, and recommendations for use.
