This is the book I am making with Oliver Clark and Incline Press. I spent two days at Greenside School in Shepherds Bush, which was designed by Erno Goldfinger. One day was spent with some of the children so that I could see the school through their eyes (they each made a drypoint print for the book) and the other day was spent drawing. The book, created to raise money for the school, is available at Collinge & Clark bookshop.
The p’s & q’s press prints mainly intaglio and letterpress books, also small books using new technologies, always in search of more expressive combinations of image and text. Recent publications include collaborations, translations, anthologies and other collections. The press was established in 1999. The first book by the artist was The Monkeys’ Dream (1991).
Christine Tacq completed a BA at Kingston College of Art and was awarded a French government Fine Art Scholarship to spend the following year etching at the Atelier run by Johnny Friedlaender in Paris.
Christine continued printmaking at Bristol Artspace. A residency in Milton Keynes resulted in the publication of her first artists book.
Leonie Lachlan and occasional other artists also create books with p's & q's Press.
The p's & q's Press is based in Thame, Oxfordshire. Contact christine.tacq@talk21.com
