When the Tamarind Institute of Lithography was founded in 1960, there was little interest in hand-crafted printmaking or lithography at all in this country. Fifty years and hundreds of prints later, it is difficult to imagine what lithography in the United States would be without the influence of the now world-renowned Tamarind Institute. Showcasing the broad aesthetic capabilities of lithography, Tamarind Touchstones demonstrates the diversity of the artists who have embraced lithography and their increased facility and comfort with the medium.

Founded in 1960, Tamarind Institute has had a major influence on art-making in the late twentieth century. This book documents many of the extraordinary prints that have been made at Tamarind and the artists and printers who have worked there over the last four decades.
