Moschatel Press is a small press publisher producing artist's books and poetry collections. It was founded in Nailsworth, Gloucestershire, in 1973, by the artist Laurie Clark and the Scottish poet Thomas A. Clark and moved to Pittenweem, Fife in 2002. The Press "is named after adoxa moschatellina, a plant known locally as Town Clock for its four-way green flower heads, with a fifth flower facing the sky." Their main line is in "publishing minimal texts, visual poetry and the like in small neat booklets and postcards."Thomas A. Clark was born in Greenock, Scotland in 1944 and left school, "barely literate", at 15. He then worked in factories and warehouses for the next eight years before realising "there was a world outside to be lived in" and moving to England in 1967. In addition to his work with Moschatel Press, Thomas A. Clark led a group of artists installing artworks in the new Stobhill Hospital, Glasgow for its opening in 2009.Laurie Clark was born in New York in 1949 and married Thomas A. Clark in 1972. An Adana printing press they were given as a wedding present inspired the founding of the Moschatel Press to print poems and send them to friends.They have published work by Ian Hamilton Finlay among other artists; although most of their output is their own work which frequently consists of reflections on nature.In 1986 the Clarks established the Cairn Gallery initially in Days Mill, Nailsworth, subsequently in Pittenweem. The Gallery is run as an artist-run space, for land art, minimalism and lyrical or poetic conceptualism.
