"The invention of the Iowa Foil Printer -- a safe, nonintimidating device that allows one artist, working alone, to execute the entire stamping process from beginning to end -- was essential to the development of foil imaging. Taking advantage of its utility and flexibility, students at the University of Iowa -- undergraduates, graduates, and postgraduates -- have successfully incorporated hot-stamped foil into a wide variety of other media. These include not only the other traditional print-making techniques such as lithographiy, relief, and serigraphy, but also painting, metalsmithing, fabric design, multimedia, photo-imaging, and three-dimensional conceptions." (dj) An exquisite book, inside and out.
