Biographical Note The Print Council of Australia (PCA) was established in 1966 to encourage the production and appreciation of hand-printed graphics. The intention of the PCA was to stimulate printmaking activities, to encourage understanding and appreciation of the original print and to define the various types of printmaking (wood-cut, etching, engraving, lithograph or serigraph). The council represents one of the first administrative bodies in printmaking which began with migrant artist-teachers trained in the mainstreams of European traditions (Udo Sellbach) and the return of Australian artists from overseas to work and teach (Grahame King, Earle Backen, Robert Grieve, Murray Walker and David Rose). Artists who have made significant contributions to printmaking in Australia and have been documented in this collection include Basil Hadley, Barbara Hanrahan, Earle Backen, Robert Grieve, Geoff La Gerche, Murray Walker, Stanley Palmer, Jock Clutterbuck, Franz Kempf, Ruth Faerber, Grahame King, Mary MacQueen, Allan Mitelman, John Olsen, David Rose, Udo Sellbach, Michael West, Ray Beattie, Roger Kemp, Brett Whiteley, Hertha Kluge-Pott, James Taylor, Olga Sankey. The council assembled exhibitions of prints by Australian and overseas artists for itineraries of showings within Australia and arranged exchange exhibitions with other countries. Print council exhibitions were shown in Europe, the United States of America, South East Asia and New Zealand. Prints by students that were under 2
instruction at art schools in all states were also assembled and selected each year for showing in Australia and overseas. In addition each year the council commissioned prints by well-known artists in limited editions for members and patrons. The council’s programme also included the publication of exhibition catalogues and posters and the journal Imprint which contains articles on Australian printmaking and printmakers. These activities were managed by a voluntary committee and financed by membership fees, donations and grants from the Visual Arts Board of the Australian Council and State Government. The presidents of the Print Council of Australia include Grahame King (1966 -1975), Robert Grieve (1975-1977), Geoff La Gerche (1978-1980),) and Neil Caffin.
