Zusammenfassung:Discusses the exhibition catalogue Made in Woodstock: Printmaking from 1903 to 1945 published to accompany the exhibition at the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center at Vassar College in Pughkeepsie, New York (5 July-15 Sept. 2002). The author expresses her disappointment that the catalogue does not provide information regarding little-known printmakers from Woodstock, New York, refers to the previous publication of information regarding more than half of the printmakers featured in the catalogue, and analyses the reasons behind the inclusion or exclusion of certain artists, with reference to Bolton Brown (1864-1936), Peggy Bacon (1895-1936), and Alfred Hutty (1857-1954). She notes the omission of the work of Andrée Ruellen (b.1905), reports on the inclusion of endnotes rather than a bibliography, and queries the lack of reference to the 1983 catalogue Provincetown Printers. She concludes by stating that the value of the work lies in its overview of the history of printmaking in Woodstock.
