COUNTER-OBJECT "OPEN" / LTD EDITION PRINT


"Counter-objects.co.uk is a showcase for product design from some of the world’s most well known and regarded designers as well as emerging, young talent."

To mark the launch of Counter-Object, the younger sister to the wonderful Counter-Print, I was asked to create a limited edition print. Now available from the Counter-Object site, the A1 print is in a very low edition of 50 for a very reasonable £20. Be quick.

GAGOSIAN


An interesting little article from Arrested Motion documenting the "Urban Art" scene inching a little further over the perceived borders into the traditional "Fine Art" realms, in the form of Faile at The Gagosian.

SONG OF THE WEEK 2009 PLAYLIST


Posts have been very few and far between of late due to heavy workload but to try and kick start something a little more regular I have put together a Spotify Playlist of all of the "Songs of the Week" I posted last year. In honour of all those bargain bin compilations it is a combination of stuff I was obsessively listening to and random stuff I came across both new and from years gone past.

PICK ME UP / SOMERSET HOUSE


I am very pleased to have been selected as one of 25 exhibitors from around the world to show in the first ever UK commercial art fair "Pick Me Up" at London's prestigious Somerset House.

It is a double bonus as, not only will the exhibition be designed by the beautiful hand of Michael Marriott, I will be exhibiting alongside good friends such as Melvin Galapon, Mr Bingo and Alex Trochut among others. Somerset House is also commissioning each artist to create a brand new limited-edition print for the fair which will be for sale exclusively through Pick Me Up.

Aswell as the curated exhibition there will be a multitude of events, installations and eye candy from the likes of PeepShow, Rob Ryan and It's Nice That taking place throughout the duration of the fair.

PEEPSHOW COLLECTIVE / NEW SITE


My favourite illustration collective Peepshow unveiled their always impressive body of work with a new website yesterday. The site is by the talented guys over at Sennep and showcases the vast ground covered by Peepshow since their inception 10 years ago (image above is a detail taken from the collage "Creation: by Miles Donovan). Inspirational stuff.
