Bill Henson Speaks for Printmaking in the Age of Romanticism

Description:
Bill Henson is a name mottled by controversy. But before the outcry came his ethereal images of floating frail youths, the strange beauty to be found in industrial scapes and the light and dark in "the furry texture of night time". Hear the man speak about his re-issued publication, Lux et Nox for the last of the Printmaking in the Age of Romanticism series. Check your preconceptions at the door. – CB
