Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Limited Edition. No. 36 of 110 copies, oblong quarto, 22 leaves (printed on rectos only). Wood engravings (as opposed to wood carvings) are produced by practicing "the exacting art of hand engraving in endgrain hardwood" (n.b., quote from the Colophon). This book a collection of seventeen stunning wood engravings by various artists, each printed and signed below the plate by the artist. Gale Mueller (who signed the essay page "In the Beginning.") invited the artists "to submit an edition of engravings on the title theme of 'surroundings, ' and the variety of responses shows the versatility of wood engraving as a medium" (ibid). The theme of "Surroundings" is explained by Mueller in the essay which focuses on the glacial history and forces which created the beauty seen in nature, which now "provide a tapestry of tranquility for the creative processes." The artists included are: Carl Montford, Sylvia Pixley, Jim Horton, Dale Kennedy, Lezle Williams, Earl Nitschke, Michael McGarvey, Abigail Rorer, Judith Jaidinger, James Todd, Richard Wagener, Carol Inderieden, William Andrew Myers, Andy English, Mary Thompson, Richard Franklin, and Gale Mueller.
