Lithography - A hypnotic video of a rare art form

short film for BBC Culture.


Hypnotic in its measured pace and minimal soundtrack, this short film reveals a technique that goes back more than two centuries. Sarah Dudley and Ulli Kühle are lithographers, drawing on stone in layers of colour, etching with nitric acid, rolling on ink and printing onto acid-free cotton rag paper.
