Synopsis
The Mechanical Hand: Artists' Projects at Paupers Press focuses on the work of Paupers Press, a fine art print studio that concentrates on etching, lithography and relief printing. The studio has worked with many of the leading contemporary artists working in collaboration with the artists to produce limited edition and unique prints, books and portfolio collections. The Mechanical Hand examines the collaborative relationship of the studio and the contemporary artists they work with. The Mechanical Hand features Damien Hirst's widely recognizable Butterflies , controversial skull prints and large scale hand-inked photogravure Sanctum series 2009. Rachel Whiteread's Twelve Objects , are discussed and featured; 12 etchings of everyday objects ranging from a walnut to a bottle to a light switch. From Keith Coventry there is his 2008 series Copper and Silk series, a collection of 20 prints made by etching and silkscreen. The Mechanical Hand includes Jake & Dinos Chapman's Etchasketchathon series stemming from the popular childrens toy ‘Etch-A-Sketch' and playing nostalgia and childhood innocence off against contemporary adult themes. The book also includes an interview with Turner Prize nominated Catherine Yass and commentary from the other artists included showing a unique insight into their working methods., "The Mechanical Hand: Artists' Projects at Paupers Press" focuses on the work of Paupers Press, a fine art print studio that concentrates on etching, lithography and relief printing.

The Mechanical Hand includes interviews with artists and essays on the nature of the print within contemporary artistic practice. The Mechanical Hand includes images of many unique, hand painted and one-off variations from the studio's archive. Damien Hirst's butterfly and skull prints, including the 2009 Sanctum and 2007 Momento series of large scale photogravures, Keith Coventry's 2008 Copper and Silk etchings and prints by Paula Rego, Mat Collishaw and Glenn Brown are featured. With written contributions from Rachel Whiteread, Bob & Roberta Smith, Cornelia Parker and Grayson Perry to accompany images of their work, an interview with Turner Prize nominated Catherine Yass, along with essays by Martin Herbert on recent projects by Jake & Dinos Chapman and Stephen Chambers, The Mechanical Hand explores the notion of the artists' print as a means of visualising original thought. As such, The Mechanical Hand is a celebration of the making of the printed multiple as an extension of the hand and mind's continued interdependence in the visual expression of the human condition.

    Typically bungling performance from Evri (Hermes): the package was said to be ‘out for delivery’ on 2 September, but it did not arrive until 8 September, after I had expended much effort in trying to find out what had happened to it. In contrast, top marks for the seller: accurate description, excellent packaging, prompt transport from USA (until Evri got its hands on the package), and good-natured support when I explained the problems I was having with the notoriously inefficient delivery firm.

    Shipping was insanely fast! Packaging super tough! Came as described and beyond the value. One of my new favorite additions to my books.
