One cannot think of printmaking of the last half century without John Ross and Clare Romano. As printmakers, illustrators, teachers, and authors, both are recognized throughout the world as two of the important contemporary artists working on paper. John Ross and Clare Romano: Artists and the Book , a lavish, four-color collection of some of the artists' most superlative traditional book illustrations and limited edition artists' books, showcases a fifty-year collaboration between these two masters. It is almost impossible to distinguish where the hand of one leaves off and the hand of the other begins. Included in this collection are both mass distribution books that contain illustrations by Ross and issued by commercial publishers, as well as books designed, typeset, illustrated, hand printed by Ross himself, and published in limited small editions under the imprint of High Tide Press, which he and Romano established in 1991. In their extraordinary sensitivity to word and line, layout and medium--whether woodcut or collagraph--these books redound with the grace and intelligence that distinguishes their individual creations, and define book illustration for our time. John Ross and Clare Romano is a companion volume to an exhibition at the Rutgers University Libraries.
