The Norwegian printmaker association was founded in 1919 by a group of printmakers, including the famous painter and printmaker Edward monk. Since then, it has continued to grow, with more than 300 members, and has become a platform for artistic cooperation and political opinion in the industry. The association also opened a gallery in downtown Oslo to exhibit contemporary printmaking art and promote the printmaking works of its members to the public

As a printmaker, monk has attracted much attention for his innovation and clever use of new wood carving technology. Other important stages in Norwegian printmaking history include modernism in the 1950s and 1960s and social consciousness printmaking in the 1970s. Norwegian printmaking today is an aggressive and experimental field
