Abstract Expressionist painter, Helen Frankenthaler, began pursuing printmaking in the early 1960s. The idea for This Is Not A Book arose from Frankenthaler’s long-held desire to produce prints for a bound volume. However, without a text to illustrate and continually unable to find anything appropriate, it appeared to be an impossible project. Frankenthaler began without a text to create "this book that is not a book" over a period of two years in close collaboration with the master printmaker Kenneth Tyler.
Frankenthaler began the project in November 1995, working on it over a period of two years. The prints were produced in close collaboration with the master printmaker Kenneth Tyler with whom she has worked regularly.
