computer typesetting on an advanced level. Relief printing, photopolymer plates, color reduction
printing, and related traditional and contemporary methods of multiple image making may
be pursued. Special emphasis on development of a personal visual language. Students will be
expected to design a personal book project rather than fulfill assignments. They will also
investigate contemporary book arts publishers and publications, thus fitting their own work into a
context. They will use and build on the skills learned in the introductory course, BOOK*304:
