Lino is generally diced, much easier to cut than wood, especially when heated, but the pressure of the printing process degrades the plate faster and it is difficult to create larger works due to the material's fragility.

Inspired by mediaeval religious block books and working in an Art Deco style, American illustrator James Reid (1907–1989) produced one wordless novel, The Life of Christ (1930); due to the book's religious content, the Soviet Union barred its importation under its policies on religion. In 1938, Italian-American Giacomo Patri (1898–1978) produced his only wordless novel, the linocut White Collar.
Abraham is a custodian of the Whadjuk Noongar people descended from the Beeliar Whudjuk Noongar tribe. She traces her family back many generations, and is directly related to Calyute, one of the few survivors of the Pinjarra massacre. Her grandfather is Reverend Sealin Garlett. In 1997 Abraham, along with a number of other indigenous artists of the Djidij Djidji Arts Group, created a piece of artwork using linocut print, which is part of the City of Melville's art collection.
Angelo's favoured medium was the linocut, and his prints depicting urban nocturnes and desert scenes of the American Southwest are particularly coveted by collectors and dealers. In 1926, Angelo made his first book illustrations for the well-known, San Francisco-based Grabhorn Press. In a period of 34 years, Angelo decorated and illustrated roughly 250 books. Among these were folio editions of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass, The Travels of Sir John Mandeville, and numerous books of the Bible.
Gearhart also took part in exhibitions held by the PMSC, the Chicago Society of Etchers, the Pacific Art Association, and the Society of American Etchers. In the late 1920s, Gearhart and her two sisters collaborated on a children's book of original verse illustrated with their linocut prints. Entitled Let's Play, it was not published until 2009, when it was brought out by the Book Club of California. The original manuscript is in the Cotsen Children's Library at Princeton University.
Dams’ first solo exhibition PunkMe (1986), Jordaenshuis, Antwerp, featured linocut portraits evocative of his life in the underground Punk scene. Inspired by British post-punk ballet dancer Michael Clark, Dams started exploring movement as a subject matter for his work. A series of drawings and linocuts, featuring Clark, was exhibited in MOve (1987) an exhibition at Harrods, London. He went on to explore movement in series with dancers. In 1988, Dams’ artwork moved towards drawings, murals and installations.
During this period he created a series of remarkable portraits: Hemingway, Blok, Mayakovsky, Bagritsky et al., mentioned not only in professional community but also the general public. For example, the portraits of Mayakovsky (1963) and Bagritsky (1963) were awarded the prize of Moscow Union of Artists as the best works of the year, and a portrait of Hemingway (1962) hung almost in every Soviet flat. V.Savosin introduced into artistic practice three-or four-colored portrait in linocut.
The Life Saver is a limited edition (of 25) original linocut measuring 16"x12" signed in pencil by William Kermode. It is recorded in the National Gallery of Australia, alongside some of his other work, although no copy of it exists there. It is also recorded at being exhibited at the 7th International Print Makers Exhibition 2 March- 4 April at the Los Angeles Museum in 1926.National Gallery of Australia A copy is known to be owned privately.
Part of London Views, the album artwork created by Stanley Donwood. The Eraser cover art was created by longtime Radiohead artist Stanley Donwood. The artwork, a linocut titled London Views, depicts a figure standing before London destroyed by flood in imitation of King Canute failing to command the ocean. It was inspired by the 2004 Boscastle flood and an article by environmentalist Jonathan Porritt comparing the British government's attitude to climate change to the Canute legend.
Lares & Penates, Boston, 1950 (linocut), by Janet Doub EricksonProfiled and photographed by Gjon Mili in the now defunct newsweekly Life in 1951,Life Magazine, July 9th, 1951, Gjon Mili she was nicknamed “Jumping Janet” for her practice of jumping on her linoleum and wood blocks to make the ink stick deeper into the textiles she was printing. She was also the subject of profiles in the art magazines Craft HorizonsCraft Horizons, Feature Article, 1957 and American ArtistAmerican Artist, April 1957, and won a first prize in textile design from the American Craftsmen's Council in 1954. In 1961, summarizing her textile-printing and design practices and popularizing them in the face of burgeoning public interest and a crafts revival, Erickson wrote Blockprinting on TextilesWatson-Guptill, 1961 (which went into two editions and a number of printings). A 1966 book she co-wrote with Adelaide Sproul, Printmaking Without A PressVan Norstrand Reinhold, Boston, 1966 popularized both traditional and her own more innovative linoleum (linocut) and wood-cut printing techniques at a time when block printing was on the verge of extinction in the United States.
Editions of Hoyle's prints were produced by, amongst others, Christie's Contemporary Art, Neve International and Editions Alecto (who published his Cambridge Series of linocuts in 1965/66). His later prints combined figuration and an architectural sense of design with experimentation in printmaking processes including linocut, etching and aquatint. In addition to paintings and prints sold through galleries (including the Leicester Galleries, London), Hoyle produced commissioned illustrative work for organisations such as Shell-Mex,Mason, ‘Walter Hoyle'. p140 the Folio Society and the BBC.
Upon the recommendation of a German woman in Kullavik he gained admittance in 1931 to The Industrial Arts School in Gothenburg, with Hjalmar Eldh as a teacher. Billman studied book illustration at the school. A good example of woodcut making from this period is A Fiddlers Burial (1931), inspired by a poem from collection of verse Black Ballades by the Swedish poet Dan Andersson. He also made five linoleum cuts (linocut) with which he illustrated Upton Sinclair's novel Jimmie Higgins (unpublished illustrations).
A scholarship in her honor at her alma mater, today the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, was established by former pupil Marjorie Hamilton Gillies. Three of Lacy's prints, the linocut First Monday of c. 1935–1940 and the lithographs Left Side of Tracks, of 1940, and the undated Summer Blankness, are in the collection of the National Gallery of Art; they are part of the donation made to the museum by Reba and Dave Williams of the Print Research Foundation in 2009.
After a successful exhibition at the Wiener Secession in 1916, she returned to Graz to establish herself as a freelance artist. With the first "Norbertine Roth Special Exhibition" (1918), coinciding with the end of World War I, she enjoyed great success in her home town, Graz. Already in the 1920s, she was one of the first women to become intensively involved with the new printing process of linocut. From 1921 to 1952 she created numerous animal depictions in this technique.
Kokolia's work has been included in a number of high+profile exhibitions. Between 1990 and 1991, he exhibited alongside Ivan Kafka and Tomas Ruller at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. In 1990, he was the first recipient of the Jindřich Chalupecký Award for young artists. Two of his works, Bez názvu (Untitled - 1990) (a colour linoprint and mixed media) and Barevny (Colourful - 1993) (a colour linocut), can also be found in the US National Gallery of Art collection.
At the Taller de Gráfica Popular in Mexico, Jones learned how to make woodcut and linocut prints and mingled with visiting artists like Diego Rivera and José Orozco. Jones left Mexico in 1941 to teach at Fort Valley State College in Georgia. One of the students he taught was Benny Andrews, who would go on to become an accomplished African-American artist. In 1942, during WWII, Jones was drafted into the American army and stationed at Fort McClellan in Alabama.
Giacomo Patri (1898–1978) was an Italian-born American artist and teacher. Based in San Francisco, Patri taught at the California Labor School following World War II. Due to its pro-labor agenda, the school was closed in the 1950s under the pressures of McCarthyism. In 1938, after three years of work, Patri produced the wordless novel White Collar using linocut printing. It chronicled the aftermath of the 1929 stock market crash, and was intended to motivate white-collar workers to unionize.
Proctor taught Adrian Feint the techniques of woodblock-engraving 1926–28, and they both produced covers for the Ure Smith magazine The Home. Later she taught linocut printing at Julian Ashton's Sydney Art School and drawing at the Society of Arts and Crafts of New South Wales. Late in life she promoted the neglected work of her cousin John Russell. Proctor remained unmarried but was briefly engaged to Sidney Long in 1898, whom she had met and studied with in London.
He used his influences and interests to create a personal style characterised by expressiveness, simplicity, synthesis and distortion of forms. He was involved in the formation of the Expressionists' Group in 1919 and then the Riga Artists' Group as its theoretician and first chairman. Several of his major works portray the everyday life of refugees, he also painted portraits and self-portraits. His medium was conditional colour pattern in oil and water colour which he augmented with various graphic techniques (Indian ink, drawing, linocut, woodcut).
Leonard Beaumont (1891–1986) was an English printmaker, graphic designer, illustrator and publisher. He was one of the earliest exponents of the new art of linocut printmaking in Britain during the early 1930s. He was one of a small group of progressive and highly regarded printmakers who exhibited at the Redfern and Ward Galleries in central London. Whilst working in relative isolation in Yorkshire, most of his contemporaries were linked in some way to the Grosvenor School of Modern Art, located in Pimlico, London.
Also in 1917 Lawrence began teaching art at Runston Hill School. In 1922 Lawrence met the painter and linocut artist Claude Flight and the two became lifelong companions. After living at his studio in St John's Wood for a time, the couple set up a new studio in 1927 off Baker Street from where they run an interior decoration business and produced murals, textiles and decorative household objects. Lawrence also exhibited on a regular basis throughout the 1930s at both the Ward and Redfern galleries.
To mark the 1930 occasion of Mahatma Gandhi's arrest for protesting the British tax on salt, Bose created a black on white linocut print of Gandhi walking with a staff. It became the iconic image for the non-violence movement. His genius and original style were recognised by famous artists and art critics like Gaganendranath Tagore, Ananda Coomaraswamy and O. C. Ganguli. These lovers of art felt that objective criticism was necessary for the development of painting and founded the Indian Society of Oriental Art.
From the Pintupi/Luritja language group, Daisy Jugadai was one of a range of artists who came to painting through the Ikuntji Women's Centre in the early 1990s. She is credited with a significant role in the centre's establishment. She began with screen printing and linocut printmaking, but quickly shifted to acrylic painting, producing many of her best works during the mid-1990s. Western Desert artists such as Daisy Jugadai will frequently paint particular 'dreamings' or Tjukurrpa for which they have personal responsibility or rights.
SFCB offers four to five book arts-related exhibitions each year, focused on artist's books, design bindings, fine press books, artist retrospectives, and private collections among other topics. Its workshop program presents 325 letterpress printing, bookbinding, and related arts workshops to nearly 2,000 students annually. SFCB is also home to the annual Roadworks Steamroller Printing Festival, a local artist/vendor street festival that celebrates printing by using the road surface as a printing bed and antique steamrollers as presses for large-scale linocut prints.
Sprague was born in Bournemouth, to a father who was a train driver and a mother who worked in a cardboard box factory. His first work of art, in 1937, in response to the Guernica air raid in the Spanish Civil War, was a linocut made from linoleum torn from the kitchen floor. Printed on his mother's mangle, it was used on collecting sheets for Spain. He was educated at Alma Road Elementary School — until it was bombed during World War II — and Porchester Road Secondary Modern School.
Alexandru Bassarab, or Basarab (August 7, 1907 – July 8, 1941), was a Romanian painter, engraver, and fascist politician. Earning his reputation for his pioneering work in linocut and woodcut, he explored neotraditionalism, Romanian nationalism, and Romanian folklore, and was ultimately drawn into politics with the Iron Guard. He helped steer several art groups associated or integrated with the Guard, contributed to its fascist propaganda, and briefly served in the Assembly of Deputies. He survived the clampdown of the late 1930s, returning to apolitical work with Grupul Grafic, and exploring the legacy of Byzantine art.
Charles James Martin (September 1886 – August 9, 1955) was an American modernist artist and arts instructor. He worked in a variety of media including etching, lithography, water color, monotype, linocut, woodcut, oil, photography, mezzotint and silversmithing. Born in Mansfield, England in 1886, Martin emigrated to the US as a boy and lived out the remainder of his life as an American. He studied art under Arthur Wesley Dow at Dow's Ipswich Summer School of Art as well as at Columbia University Teachers College, where he became an instructor himself in 1914.
Richard Mock (1944 – July 28, 2006) was a printmaker, painter, sculptor, and editorial cartoonist. Mock was best known for his linocut illustrations that appeared on the Op-Ed page of The New York Times from 1980 through 1996.[1] Born in 1944 in Long Beach, California, Mock earned his bachelor's degree, studying lithography and block printing, at the University of Michigan. Settling in New York City in 1968, Mock had exhibitions at 112 Greene Street, The Whitney (in 1973), Exit Art, and his most recent show at the Sideshow Gallery in Brooklyn.
He suffered a heart attack in 1979 while visiting Belgium and later that year he had bypass surgery in South Africa. After the operation Claerhout's art underwent a colour evolution from the initial Flemish inspired earthy palette to one of brightness. His artistic legacy includes other media such as sculpture, wall-paintings, monotype and linocut, stained glass drawings and crayon. Claerhout donated much of the earnings from his versatile artwork to fund the building of housing and schools and support the people of his mission in and around Bloemfontein and Thaba Nchu.2016\.
Born in Cape Town on 24 February 1967, Billy Mandindi was educated in King William’s Town, in the Ciskei region of the Eastern Province. Mandindi mostly taught himself art, although he did take classes at the Community Arts Project (1985–1986), and at the Michaelis School of Fine Art of the University of Cape Town for one year (1987-1988). He also regularly attended the Visual Arts Group workshops between 1988 and 1989. Mandindi was associated with Hardground Printmakers for 4 years, which produced his prints and portfolios of linocut.
A fact of Kermode's work, as yet undocumented and largely ignored, is the variety of birding covers and dust wrappers which he designed, some from linocut and many bearing the simple initial "K". Sybil Andrews attended a lecture and demonstration by William Kermode on wood-block printing at Heatherley's School of Art, London in the 20s.Cutting Edge of Modernity, Gordon Samuel, Lund Humphries Publishers, 2002, A short obituary following his death and written by Owen Rowley appeared on page 12 of The Times on Thursday 5 February 1959.
Kana Wrestling the Turtle by Juliette May Fraser, fresco on canec (a sugar- cane fiber-base insulation board manufactured by Hawaiian Cane Products, Inc.), 1954, Hawaii State Art Museum Huakai-po, linocut by Juliette May Fraser, c. 1952, private collection Detail of charcoal and sanguine mural, 1939 Juliette May Fraser (1887 in Honolulu – 1983 in Honolulu) was an American painter, muralist and printmaker. She was born in Honolulu, which was then the capital city of the Kingdom of Hawaii. After graduating from Wellesley College with a degree in art, she returned to Hawaii for several years.
In the early 1950s several more artists (including George Chapman, Stanley Clifford-Smith, Audrey Cruddas and Marianne Straub) moved to the village making it one of the most artistically creative spots in Britain. Rothenstein took an important role in organising the Great Bardfield Artists exhibitions during the 1950s. Thanks to his contacts in the art world (his older brother, Sir John Rothenstein, was the current head of the Tate Gallery) these exhibitions became nationally known and attracted thousands of visitors. From the mid-1950s Rothenstein almost abandoned painting in preference to printmaking which included linocut as well as etchings.
In 1947 she and Morgan moved to Canada and settled in Campbell River, British Columbia. Seeking a new life together after the depression of two world wars, Andrews and Morgan moved to a small cottage in the logging community on Vancouver Island where they made ends meet building and repairing boats. Rediscovered in the art world during the 1970s and 1980s, Andrews became a local celebrity and spent the rest of her life working, painting and teaching. Sybil Andrews was elected to the Society of Canadian Painters, Etchers and Engravers in 1951 when her linocut Indian Dance was selected as the presentation print.
A tradition at Sine Qua Non is that each wine has a distinct name, label and often bottle style. Each label is hand made by Manfred, often with linocut art work of his own creation. Sine Qua Non's Syrahs were among the first American Syrahs to create significant interest and trading volume in the worldwide wine auction market. From the second quarter of 1999 to early 2008, the value of SQN wines at auctions appreciated by 163% in contrast to the 128% appreciation rate during the same period of other collectible wines listed on the Wine Spectator Auction Index.
1973), started translating these skills into the more portable forms of printmaking, linocut and etching, as well as larger scale bronze sculptures. Other outstanding artists include Billy Missi (1970-2012), known for his decorated black and white linocuts of the local vegetation and eco-systems, and Alick Tipoti (b.1975). These and other Torres Strait artists have greatly expanded the forms of Indigenous art within Australia, bringing superb Melanesian carving skills as well as new stories and subject matter. The College of Technical and Further Education on Thursday Island was a starting point for young Islanders to pursue studies in art.
From his early student years, his preferred graphics, working in Indian ink and watercolour, as well as prints, mainly etching, lithography, monotype, and occasionally linocut. From the late 1950s he travelled extensively in the USSR, as a special correspondent for the Pravda, Komsomolskaya Pravda and Literaturnaya Gazeta newspapers, and the journals Ogonyok and Yunost, documenting these trips with drawings and prints of the Bratsk and Krasnoyarsk hydropower plants, the industrial Urals, the oil fields of Baku, and the Moskvich car factory in Moscow. He worked in the Far East and Kamchatka, in Pamir, Murmansk, and in Ukraine.
A late work Bather (2009) has a similar subject flexing her triceps. Her linocut series The Black Woman Speaks, is among the first graphic series in Western art to depict the image of the American black woman as a heroic and complex human being. Her work was influenced by the Harlem Renaissance movement and the Chicago Black Renaissance in the 1940s and reinforced in the 1960s and 1970s with the influence of the Black Power, Black Arts Movement and feminism. With artists like Lois Jones, she helped to create what critic Freida High Tesfagiorgis called an "Afrofemcentrist" analytic.
The Stonemason: A History of Building Britain is a book written by Andrew Ziminski, published by John Murray in 2020. The book is divided into four parts, combining a chronological and geological approach, with each part concentrating on a single type of stone and how it is used in a particular architectural style and period. Partly an autobiography, the book features examples that are principally drawn from the author's own work in an area broadly corresponding to Wessex, and chapters are arranged to reflect the passage of a single year, beginning and ending at Samhain. Each chapter is preceded by a linocut print produced by Clare Venables.
In 1986, the exhibition, titled A Response, consisted of large- scale sculptures and linocut prints that depicted threatened or extinct wildlife, such as the fin whale, polar bear, sea eagle, puma, white rhinoceros and the great auk. It embodied extensive research on Benner's part about the meanings of animals and nature symbols to older civilizations. A particular highlight was the surreal installation of White Rhino (1986), a full-scale aluminum-clad sculpture of a rhinoceros. In 1996, in his show titled Tecumseh, at Museum London, Benner also brought to light little known or lost histories of Aboriginal identities in the Canadian narrative, such as Tribute to Nahneebahweequay (1988) and Tecumseh (1993).
Sculpture panel at the former St Martin's School of Art by Ryland Ryland was born in Windsor, where her father was a solicitor and where she would settle later in life. She studied at the Heatherley School of Fine Art from 1920 to 1925 and then at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art where she was taught linocut and woodcut techniques by Iain Macnab and Claude Flight. In 1927 she began exhibiting with the Women's International Art Club, WIAC, which became her main exhibition venue throughout her career. In 1936 Ryland became a member of WIAC and remained so for many years until the late 1950s.
As time passed in her career as a book illustrator, Oille began using scraperboard and linocut as being just as effective for illustration as the more demanding wood engraving. In the 1960s, the couple moved to Virginia for 18 years and then to The Bahamas. It appears that during this time away from Canada, Oille did not continue her art in any way and she was virtually forgotten in Canada despite the continued popularity of The Owl Pen. After Wells' death she returned to Canada in the early 1990s, living in Orillia, Ontario, very near her ancestral roots and the countryside of The Owl Pen.
Persuaded by a friend, the artist Poty Lazzarotto, Katz studied metal engraving with Carlos Oswald at the Rio de Janeiro School of Arts and Crafts. Throughout the 1950s, she continued to work with metal engraving but switched to woodcutting and lithography for most of her career and only returned to engraving in the 1980s. After moving to São Paulo in 1951, Katz taught painting and print making at the São Paulo Museum of Art from 1952 to 1955, and at the Armando Álvares Penteado Foundation from 1953 to 1963. During this period, from the late 1940s to mid 1950s, she mostly dedicated herself to woodcut and linocut working.
Sonia Romero (born 1980 in Los Angeles, California) is a Chicana, American artist known for her printmaking, mixed media linocut prints, murals, and public art based in Los Angeles. She is known for depicting Los Angeles, Latin American imagery, and Chicano themes in her work. Romero has had artwork commissioned by the Los Angeles County Art Commission, and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority. She is known for straddling the world of both fine art and public art, as her prints are often exhibited in galleries and she collaborates with civic organizations in producing public art, such as the public pool murals created with the Los Angeles Conservation Corp.
Amongst interwar Australian printmakers Waller is particularly unique for her strong art deco compositions and her fantasy, mythological and astrological imagery. Although her work was mostly in linocut, with black and white linework, the complexity of her designs often exceeded that of her contemporaries in works like The Great Breath. She worked closely with Geelong based Henry Tatlock Miller and his Golden Arrow Press, to produce limited edition books, although Hendrik Kohlenberg suggests that Waller undertook most of the physical production of the book in her Fairy Hills studio and only a fraction of the planned 150 book edition for The Great Breath was ever completed. Another similar production of equal rarity is The Gates of Dawn.
Viking Eggeling's drawings for a Generalbass der Malerei ("General Basis of Painting"), 1918 As early as 1917, Marcel Janco began taking his distance from the movement he had helped to generate. His work, in both woodcut and linocut, continued to be used as the illustration to Dada almanacs for another two years,Sandqvist, p.93 but he was more often than not in disagreement with Tzara, while also trying to diversify his style. As noted by critics, he found himself split between the urge to mock traditional art and the belief that something just as elaborate needed to take its place: in the conflict between Tzara's nihilism and Ball's art for art's sake, Janco tended to support the latter.
His music has drawn elements from psychedelic rock, traditional folk music, soundtracks, free jazz, and modern composers, and tends to be contemplative and somewhat mournful. Some of his records feature elaborate packaging, woodcut and linocut prints, and handmade chapbooks. Throughout his career Smith has recorded for a number of independent labels such as Important Records, Soft Abuse, Catsup Plate, Root Strata, Immune Recordings, Last Visible Dog, Jewelled Antler, Darla Records, and Emperor Jones. In addition to his ongoing solo work, Smith has been a member of the instrumental psych-rock group Mirza; the improvisational group Thuja; Hala Strana, a project which focuses on the traditional music of Eastern Europe; and most recently Ulaan Passerine, Ulaan Markhor, and Ulaan Khol.
The Bridge (1930) by Dorrit Black Dorrit Black was born in the Adelaide suburb of Burnside, the daughter of engineer and architect Alfred Barham Black and Jessie Howard Clark, an amateur artist and daughter of John Howard Clark, editor of the South Australian Register. She attended the South Australian School of Arts and Crafts in about 1909, working in watercolors, and attended the Julian Ashton Art School in Sydney in 1915, concentrating on working in oils. In 1927, Black went by herself to London and attended the Grosvenor School of Modern Art, where she experimented with colour linocut printing while studying under Claude Flight. Black was influenced by Flight to use bold geometrical patterns and harmonious colour schemes.
Iain Macnab of Barachastlain (21 October 1890 – 24 December 1967) was a Scottish wood-engraver and painter. As a prominent teacher he was influential in the development of the British school of wood-engraving.Hal Bishop, ‘Macnab, Iain, of Barachastlain (1890–1967)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 accessed 30 June 2009 His pictures are noted for clarity of form and composition. His concepts of the sense of motion which could be created by the shape of repetitive parallel lines were of profound influence, in particular in relation to the art of linocut – an art form which both he and Claude Flight pioneered at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art where with the teachers included Cyril Power and Sybil Andrews.
Spowers had her first solo exhibit in Melbourne at age 30, showing fairy-tale illustrations as those of Ethel Jackson Morris. Two further solo shows (1925 and 1927) at the New Gallery, Melbourne, confirmed her reputation as an illustrator of fairy tales, though by then she was also producing woodcuts and linocuts inspired by Japanese art and covering a broader range of subjects. \----Her style and artistic focus changed in 1928–29 when she studied linocut printmaking with Claude Flight at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art in London. She was one of several Australian women artists at the Grosvenor School, including Dorrit Black and Eveline Winifred Syme.Stephen Coppel, "Claude Flight and his Australian Pupils," Print Quarterly2(4)(December 1985): 263-283.
The artist liked to experiment especially with the linocut, a great favorite among the German Expressionists and a medium that they imbued with new life. After contributing to Der Sturm journal in the early 1920s he began to work with this printing technique again, in particular in 1936, and produced the 7-series Gastgeschenk in Schwarz-Weiss ("Hospitality gift in black-and-white"), a self-contained series of 210 linocuts - some of them almost miniatures - presenting a fusion of his hitherto art and form vocabulary. The subject matter of his linocuts follows the repertoire of his colored works on paper and sketches as well as paintings, and occasionally they explore paths for developing entirely new genres. Nebel produced linocuts continually alongside his other work.
As the supplies of metal began to dry up due to World War II, Frostic turned to more readily available materials and began printmaking, using the Linocut technique of carving linoleum blocks. Due to her exploration with plastic, she was also commissioned to make a piece for the 1939 New York World's Fair. During World War II, Frostic worked full-time, six days a week, as a tool and die draftsperson in the Willow Run bomber plant of Ford Motor Company where she became skilled in production. After the war, Frostic started her own production printing company in Wyandotte, known as Presscraft Papers, by turning her linoleum block carvings into stationery goods and prints through the use of Heidelberg printing presses.
Three years later, the pair became part of the staff of the Grosvenor School of Modern Art – Power was appointed as one of the founding lecturers, while Andrews became the school's first secretary. Both Power and Andrews were swept up in Britain's linocut craze of the 1920s and 1930s under the tutelage of Claude Flight, instructor and champion of linocutting at the Grosvenor School. Flight, a proponent of the relatively new medium, believed that linocuts were most appropriate for expressing the modern age in which they lived, particularly because artists were able to move forward and stamp their own unique mark on the medium, free from the confines of tradition unlike the woodcuts based in historical Japanese methods. Likewise, Andrews quickly absorbed Flight's enthusiasm for linocutting and made it her life's work.
Throughout his career, Held used woodblock, linocut, bronze, pen, and paint and he painted everything from maps to cartoons, to scenery and accurate animal portraits. Even though his art was so varied in style, there was unity in effect. Arguing that Fitzgerald christened the Jazz Age, Corey Ford described Held as both the recorder and the setter of popular styles and manners of the era: > His angular and scantily clad flapper was accepted by scandalized elders as > the prototype of modern youth, the symbol of our moral revolution ... Week > after week in Life and Judge and College Humor, they danced the Charleston > with ropes of beads swinging and bracelets clanking and legs kicking at > right angles ... So sedulously did we ape his caricatures that they lost > their satiric point and came to be a documentary record of our time.Held, > John. 1972.
His right-hand man was his stepson Ivo Jarosy, who started as the Academy's publicist in 1938 and wrote carefully researched press releases. He worked closely with Peter Strausfield (also interned with Hoellering on the Isle of Man) who created original linocut images for the Academy's distinctive posters since the cinema had a policy of not using any existing publicity material. Apart from European features and avant-garde or experimental films, the Academy programmed a range of documentary films such as The Way We Live by Jill Craigie, and Children On Trial by Jack Lee (shown with Zéro de Conduite by Jean Vigo), and Herbert von Karajan conducting the St. Matthew Passion by J. S. Bach (1949). A film which showed at The Academy after the war could obtain up to 1,000 bookings across the country, although the British commercial film industry had been slow to embrace documentaries.
This sort of creativity put pressure on the facilities of the camp and caused a drastic shortage of art supplies, at least in the early days of the camp. This led to much resourcefulness, such as: mixing brick dust with the oil from sardine cans in order to make paint, digging up clay when out on walks for sculpture, and ripping up the lino floors to make cuttings which they then pressed through the clothes mangle to create linocut prints. In addition to this there was a ravenous use of materials such as brown paper from parcels, government issue toilet paper, wall paper torn from the walls, and also the resultant blank spaces on the walls now ripe for murals.
