The accompanying exhibition book: a 650 page lexicon: a Who is Who of colour woodblock printmaking (Farbholzschnitt) in Imperial and Weimar Germany.
It is composed with the new short biographies of hundreds of forgotten women artists based on 20 years of research and collecting. The Lexicon is available as a limited edition, privately printed book (2 Volumes) and also digitally as PDF (updated 2024) version
