The Artists' Press - Johannesburg



In 1991 The Artists' Press opened its doors in Newtown, Johannesburg, under the direction of Tamarind Master Printer, Mark Attwood.

The Artists' Press started as a lithography studio providing artists in southern Africa with a workshop dedicated to the production of limited edition hand printed lithographs.

Since its inception the press has grown steadily and today offers a variety of print processes to artists as well as publishing and selling original prints and artists books.

In 2003 The Artists' Press relocated to a farming area just outside of White River in Mpumalanga. In the purpose built studio the press now offers lithography, letterpress, intaglio, mono-printing and relief printing.

Mark Attwood is the director of the studio and is the Master Printer.
