Tyler Graphics: Catalogue Raisonne, 19862001 documents across three volumes the final works published by master printer Kenneth E. Tyler, a seminal figure in the American print renaissance of the twentieth century. During his esteemed career, Tyler collaborated with titans of modern and postmodern American art, working by the mantra 'great prints are made by great artists'. He was known for pushing artists to dream big, and for creating new technology and exhaustive facilities to enable their creative potential.

Volumes 1 and 2 feature 1040 entries from the 28 artists that worked at Tyler Graphics between 1986 and 2001. Each entry goes beyond a standard record to list in detail the colours, methods and presses used at each step of the printing process. This exhaustive approach gives artist, printers and researchers an unrivalled insight into the techniques used to create some of the most ambitious works in the history of American printmaking.

Volume 3 contains essays from distinguished American scholars and print curators from the National Gallery of Australia. These focus on Tyler's journey as a printer, the distinctive qualities of the Tyler Graphics workshop at Mount Kisco, New York, and the output of selected artists of the period including Helen Frankenthaler, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Motherwell, James Rosenquist and Frank Stella. Together they tell the story of a workshop that was filled with experimentation, innovation and creative fervour.
