A Big Apple Feathursday
These collagraph prints by American artist, educator, and printer John Ross (1921-1917), made for the 1998 Birds of Manhattan, depict a few of the more common birds of that island against various architectural features of the city. It's sometimes easy to forget how biodiverse Manhattan is, particularly in bird life. Manhattan lies on the eastern route of the Atlantic flyway, so it receives many visitors as well as serving as a year-round residence for many species of birds.
The book, another donation form the estate of our late friend Dennis Bayuzick, was conceived, designed, illustrated and printed in an edition of 40 copies by John Ross at his East Hampton, New York High Tide Press in collaboration with relief aid officer and Greek and Latin scholar Lloyd Jonnes, who wrote the text. The binding, with its inset painted relief of a Cardinal, is by James D. Marcantonio at his Hope Bindery in Providence, R.I. This book was selected for the 1998 “50 Books / 50 Covers” by the American Institute for Graphic Arts in New York.

Collagraph prints, 2023
Made from items I already had around my house. Used lace (clouds/hills), scrap upholstery foam (rocks), plastic from some packaging (water), scrap cosplay foam that I etched into (ruins) and a googly eye (moon/sun).
Was inspired by the landscapes of Jacob van Ruisdael.

Self-portrait (Music) (Part I and II), 2024.
Collagraph print on paper.
29.7×42 cm / 11.7×16.5 in.
---
The men in Henri Matisse’s Music (1910) are somewhat peaceful and quiet despite being naked and vulnerable. And I want that peace for myself. By placing myself from the reality to the Matisse-inspired canvas, I’m giving me this peace, the one I can’t find in real life.

It's Fine Press Friday!
Our fine press book this week is MASKS around the world by John Ross (1921-2017). Ross was an esteemed and prolific printmaker as well as a teacher, SAGA president, and recipient of numerous accolades and awards including five MacDowell Colony Fellowships between 1977-1983. In 1991 he created The High Tide Press with wife Clare Romano and went on to produce 19 volumes of his own artist books, including MASKS around the world.
Ross is credited with helping to develop collagraph plates, a type of printing plate created through collaging materials to a rigid substrate. The collagraphs used to print MASKS around the world were made in Venice, Italy in the summer of 1998. They were created of mat board, fabric, sand and carborundom grits glued together with acrylic polymer gesso. One plate is included with each of the 15 copies of the book. Four of the masks within the book utilize pop up elements to add dimension and whimsy to the depictions and an introduction by Miriam Schapiro reminds readers of the inspiration and power inherent in mask wearing.
The binding of the book was done by James DiMarcantonio of Hope Bindery in Providence, Rhode Island and features a delightful resin casting. Perhaps unsurprisingly to regular readers, MASKS around the world is from our dear friend Dennis Bayuzick’s extraordinary collection of fine press publications. Special Collections holds number 14 of this limited edition which is signed by the artist.
The collagraph plates included with our book were used to print the Wasp Mask of the KW AKIUTL from the Northwest Coast of America.
