Welcome to Australia and New Zealand Printmaker.

A Directory of Contemporary Antipodean Artist Printmakers and Private Presses

Printmaking and letterpress are currently undergoing a transformation and revitalisation around the world, and this is also true in Australia and New Zealand where new presses are appearing regularly.

The work of the new presses is broad, ranging from the presses of graphic designers who are no longer satisfied with the purely digital medium, fine artists looking for new techniques of expression, as well as the diverse works of craft and trade presses.

Dedicated to providing resources and information to printmakers and presses. The site endeavors to act as a conduit for printmakers and artist printers from the Asia pacific region in the hope that this might further communication between artists, printmakers and private/indie presses. This website has a manifold agenda to build bridges between printmakers and to document the contemporary growth of the print arts in the antipodes through the artists, crafts people and press operators who use this site.

If you are a letterpress operator, indie press, private press or an artist printmaker then you are welcome to complete either the press register and or artist information submission form in the 'contact us' section of this site for free inclusion of yourself, your press and your work.
