Off The Shelf

Illustrators Unlimited

The Essence of Contemporary Illustration

Publisher: Gestalten

We call this the "Read Book" because it is so cool we have already read it all!

A vast collection of 'varying media styled' illustrators come together in this publication.

Taken from the Introduction:

"In one sense, it is a picture book, which we hope will inspire those who practice illustration as well as those who aspire to it in either personal or professional situations. And as the title suggests, the book illustrates just how few boundaries exist: there is no set style, no set way."

Let's check out whose work is inside:

Traci Daberko

Sanna Mander

Sami Viljanto

Khuan + Ktron

Harry Campbell

Lotta Nieminen

Sol Linero

Zara Picken

... and there are tons more names, with 285 pages of full colour to give your eyes and thumbs a good workout.

We definitely found it inspirational, this book will be hangin round the Collective studio for some time to come.

Time to scan the inside...

Hang Outs... London, UK

Swoon Newsletter

Black Rat Projects is excited to announce that our next exhibition is a large scale installation by New York artist Swoon. ‘Murmuration’ is Swoon’s first London solo exhibition and she has spent three weeks transforming the gallery space into a world populated by giant sculptural figures and delicate paper cuts. Swoon has recently shown at the Boston ICA, Museum of Contemporary Art LA and the Museum of Modern Art New Orleans and an opportunity to see one of her installations is not to be missed. Murmuration opens on December 2nd with a preview evening on Thursday December 1st.

We also have several very small hand painted editions available by Swoon. Please email info@blackrat.com if you would like to receive details.

Best wishes,

Black Rat Projects.
