Item description from seller

Black cloth boards with silver stamped lettering. Color-illustrated dust jacket with white lettering. 272 pp. BW and color illustrations. "'Editions Alecto' takes its title from the pioneering print publishers who produced contemporary artists' prints in Britain during the 1960s and 1970s, and promoted the idea of painters and sculptors being given the freedom to originate and realise ideas in multiple form. The book brings together for the first time over 20 years'-worth of 2-D graphic art and 3-D multiple objects, and puts into context the ideas and mechanisms that helped make the graphic medium a central force for a generation of British, American, and European artists. Comprising over 200 images and documentary photographs, and a catalogue of Editions Alecto publications, the work of such figures as David Hockney, Eduardo Paolozzi, Patrick Caulfield, Richard Hamilton and Gillian Ayres features." -Jacket.

Current stock occupies over 2.3 miles of shelving. We are active buyers as well as very active sellers, and supply entire reference libraries as well as individual titles. We ship books almost everywhere, with the exception of China due to restrictions. Our website mullenbooks.com maintains our entire database of over 150,000 titles dynamically, so you can submit "wants" for books which are listed, but not currently in-stock. It is a major research tool. Despite what Google may indicate, we are only open to visitors by appointment, as our schedules are dynamic depending upon the needs of our valued employees.…
