It responds to the conference theme: the role of prints in contemporary art in a social, political and cultural context ... the idea behind 'Working Proof' has been to produce a portfolio of lithographs to explore how artists could use and adapt commercial print technology..." All the lithographs were printed on Rives BFK paper. The images were scanned by Russell Jones at the Scan Shop using the stochastic process and printed on a five-colour Heidelberg Speedmaster press by Morgan Poovan and supervised by Stephen Inggs. The edition consists of 50 original copies numbered 1/50 - 50/50, 10 hors commerce numbered 1/X - X/X and 5 artist's proofs numbered 1/V - V/V.
