Since its founding in 1957 by the visionary Tatyana Grosman in a small house on Long Island, New York, Universal Limited Art Editions (ULAE) has become one of the most exciting contemporary fine art print workshops in the United States. This volume celebrates ULAE's achievement with nearly 200 works by 29 artists created over the past 40 years.Many of the prints made at ULAE in its early years helped launch and define the independent studio press movement in the United States. Reproduced here are now-classic images by Jim Dine, Helen Frankenthaler, Robert Motherwell, Larry Rivers, and James Rosenquist, and both early and recent works by Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg. ULAE has also enjoyed a tremendous burst of activity in the last decade, as represented by the work of Jane Hammond, Bill Jensen, Suzanne McClelland, Elizabeth Murray, Susan Rothenberg, Kiki Smith, and Terry Winters.

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Founded in 1957 by Tatyana Grosman, Universal Limited Art Editions (ULAE) has remained one of the most vital fine art print workshops in the United States throughout its 40-year history. This book, the catalog of an exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery, offers a rich sampling of the work done at ULAE from its beginnings to the present. Represented here are some of the preeminent names in modern art: Robert Motherwell, Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, and Helen Frankenthaler, to name a few. The excellent layout and high quality of the 260 illustrations lovingly capture the prints, most of them presented one to a page and without distracting text. A nice introduction by Corcoran curator Jack Cowart is followed by a memoir by Tony Towle, a poet who worked at ULAE in the early years. The more recent history of ULAE is outlined by Sue Scott, guest curator of the exhibition. A handsome volume offering a view of what will be remembered as one of the significant endeavors of modern art in America, this is a book for all collections.?Mark Woodhouse, Elmira Coll. Lib., NY
