Scribble Book: Self Portrait - Special Edition
by Chuck Close
little steidl
Scribble Book: Self Portrait is a multi-stage print work by Chuck Close produced using a nine-color off-set lithographic process under the direction of Gerhard Steidl. The work, derived from an earlier soft-ground etching which is reinterpreted in the new print medium, allows a viewer to follow the nine stages of a developing self-portrait as the artist makes adjustments from one plate to the next. Plate proofs and progressive proofs are presented in two accordion-fold volumes, which can be examined side by side.
