MAFA Member Anthony Ratcliffe gave a tour of his exhibition ‘Shoreline and Watershed’ at the ‘MMU Special Collections Gallery’ to members of MAFA nd the Friends Society. The tour included an introduction to the ‘Artist Book Archive Library’ by MMU’s Education Officer, Louise Clennell. Anthony Ratcliffe has exhibited widely in the UK and his prints can be found in many public and private collections in this country and abroad including The British Council and Houses of Parliament. He has made commissioned prints for Manchester Airport, Manchester Royal Infirmary and Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. His woodcut prints are formed from two blocks, the first laying down a series of colours printed using the reduction method , overprinted by a second block unifying the image with fluid linear drawing. We would like to thank Tony and the MMU for making us feel so welcome. Visit Anthony’s Ratcliffes Website
