Autorenporträt
Matthew Zucker founded Zucker Art Books in 2006 with the publication of Dieter Roth in Print: Artists' Books. With one foot anchored in antiquarian books, Matthew stepped with the other into contemporary books, continuing to publish commissioned artists' projects and multiples, as well as organizing focused exhibitions highlighting rare examples of an artist's output. He lives in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. Pia Östlund is a Swedish researcher, writer, designer and printmaker based in London. Pia has revived a lost nature printing process not used since the nineteenth century to create intricate, lifelike images of plants on paper. Since 2001, she has been a consultant to Chelsea Physic Garden, London, and Oxford Botanic Garden.
