"Black Gold" was created in November 2007 when Krause was the von Hess Visiting Artist at the University of the Arts Borowsky Center, in Philadelphia. Referencing our dependence on oil and the damage to the environment caused by the burning of fossil fuels, the print, made on the Heidelberg Offset Lithographic Press, used silver, gold and black oil-based inks and has a chine colle silk tissue inset printed on the HP Z3100.

The image size is 24" x 17.5" on Arches hotpress 28" x 20". In an edition of 100, with 6 artist proofs, prints can be obtained from the judi rotenberg gallery for $1400 unframed.

"Black Gold" is also included in the 30th "Birthday" edition of Umbrella, Vol 30, No 4, Dec. 2007, the Spring 2008 issue of Boston Printmakers Newsletter and the World Printmakers Website and is being shown in the Boston Printmaker's Traveling Exhibition, "Field Report".
