description: With an initial grant in 1979, the Hunt Manufacturing Co. began a collection at the Philadelphia Museum of Art containing adventurous and innovative works on paper by emerging artists. This catalogue marks the second installment of works acquired by the Museum since 1988, when the Museum first exhibited printmaking, drawing, and photography from the collection. Featured in this volume are acquisitions that stretch the established boundaries of composition or imagery, either through the use of centuries-old techniques or new technologies of the camera and the computer. Discussions of each work, contributed by Museum curators, and color reproductions are supplemented by brief biographies of the thirty-five artists featured in this most recent look at a unique collection of contemporary art.
