Biography:
Descendant of Sir George Hayter, Stanley William Hayter was a printmaker and painter. In 1927, he opened a workshop in Paris for the graphic arts, later named Atelier 17 in 1933. This establishment was integral in the 20th century revival of print as an independent art form. Hayter lived in New York from 1940 to 1950 and moved his workshop with him. He also wrote two major printmaking books, New Ways of Gravure in 1949 and About Prints in 1962. His prints range in style and technique but are most closely associated with Surrealism. Hayter significant place in art history has long been acknowledged but his print work was not recognized until recently.
