Description
This collection consists of a set of hand-printed editions of Occuprint posters. The set was curated by Jesse Goldstein and other members of the Occuprint collective in collaboration with Marshall Weber (the head curator at the Booklyn Artists Alliance). It was published and distributed by Booklyn in 2012.
In addition to the standard Portfolio, Occuprint made and sold a set of "pre-publication" portfolios, which contained a few extra images, including Alexandra Clotfelter's "The Beginning is Near" and [what?].
The posters were printed by several printers at an array of printshops, including the Bushwick Printlan and Taller Tupac Amaru.
The portfolio consists of thirty-one 12” x 18” hand silk-screened artists’ prints on French paper in an archival silk-screened presentation folder.
A wide range of institutions acquired the portfolio for their collections, including the Universities of Washington, Minnesota, Connecticut, Pittsburgh, and Delaware; UC Berkeley and Santa Barbara; the Labadie Collection at the University of Michigan, the Davidson Art Center at Wesleyan University, and the University of Applied Arts in Vienna.
