I was in Townsville on the weekend, a guest of the Perc Tucker Regional Gallery. The Gallery’s Director, Frances Thomson, introduced me to the great Australian printmaker and teacher Tate Adams who now lives and works in Townsville. Tate Adams was a pivotal figure in the world of printmaking in Melbourne from the 1950s and ran a gallery there specifically devoted to artists’ prints, the Crossley Gallery.  He is now 88 and busy publishing fine artists books under the imprint Lyrebird Press he established 1977.
