Janus Press:
Claire Van Vliet founded the Janus Press in 1955 and has published more than 90 books in the contemporary artists book movement, experimenting with new materials, different print techniques, unusual shapes and bindings, and unorthodox texts. Her woodcuts illustrate this 1986 Theodore Press King Lear. The Library of Congress holds the entire Janus Press archive. Two of Van Vliet's preliminary woodcuts of King Lear are displayed here along with the final version, "Enraged Lear," in the book. |
