Administratively linked to the University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Art, Tandem Press was founded in 1987 by William Weege, artist and professor of printmaking. An experimental printmaking workshop, Tandem brings internationally recognized artists to Madison. While here, they lecture, interact with students, and produce new work in collaboration with the press's master printers. Since its inception the press has produced over 250 editions.

The Chazen Museum of Art serves as the official archive for the press and receives one impression of every editioned print. The museum also makes concerted efforts to acquire one or more of the monoprints or monotypes that are produced on occasion. Included among the artists who have been in residence at Tandem Press are Art Spiegelman, David Lynch, Gronk, Suzanne Caporael, Judy Pfaff, Robert Stackhouse, Miriam Shapiro, Janet Fish, Robert Cottingham, Jaune Quick-To-See Smith, Richard Bosman, Sam Gilliam, Sam Richardson, Joseph Goldyne, and Karen Kunc.
