Remarques & avis / Review — Véritable vitrine de l'imprimerie du Japon des années 1960-70. GAJ est une excellente publication, qui associe des articles techniques de fond (voir ci-dessous) et une extrême richesse en tous types d'illustrations (dorées-argentées, en relief...) et gravures (photo-litho., cuivre, intaglio, combinaisons diverses...) avec, en coups de cœur et chefs-d'œuvre de ce vol. 18 : le fantastique rendu de transparence du vitrail de Notre-Dame de Paris par Sublimate Dyestuff (Kyodo Printing), les magnifiques couleurs et sujet d'une assiette laquée de confiseries japonaises (wagashi) (Ishida Taiseisha), les diapositives auto-collantes argentées, le joli contraste du bonhomme-pastèque, et les belles photos de paysages japonais.
True showcase of printing in the Japan of the 1960s and 70s. GAJ is an excellent publication, which joins ground articles (see below) and a great variety of illustrations (silver-gold, in 3D...) and engravings (photo-litho., copper, intaglio, various combinations...). Our favorites in this vol. 18 : the great effect of transparency of a stained glass of Notre Dame of Paris achieved by Sublimate Dyestuff (Kyodo Printing), the superb colors and taste of a lacquered plate of Japanese sweets (Ishida Taiseisha), the slide-like silver stickers, a contrasted watermeloned jack-o-lantern, and beautiful pictures of Japanese landscapes.
