The Graphic Conscience, a new art and criticism blog:

www.graphicconscience.blogspot.com

The Graphic Conscience seeks to critique and elevate the discussion of
printmaking and related fields. As a conscience, this forum will hold
true to some of the original aspects of printed matter: its democratic
nature, interrelationship with communication, and the role it plays in
activism. Additionally, the Graphic Conscience aims to use the city of
Philadelphia as a matrix for exploration and discussion of the medium
of printmaking, and to bring attention to oft-neglected artists in the
field. Concurrent with this, this forum will explore how discussions in
the democratic field of the web reflect the democratic nature of
printed matter, and will investigate the idea of criticism as an
intersection with printmaking, performance, and public interventions.
