Inspiration for the marvellous Make Your Own Book book by the King’s College wimbledon, Art Society Press, now in last week of exhibition at LCC m.bilibili.com/video/BV1Xx4...
Last week of this fun exhibition at LCC: The Art Society Press, was a wonderful schoolboy run outfit led by their brilliant art teacher Robert Holloway in the 50s and early 60s. Sometimes inspired by the Goons, includes innovative techniques for linocuts and marginal running gags - Come Along!.
Looking forward to tonight’s talk at the Hammersmith ICC @MyICCLondon come along 7.30, fascinating subject and this one is free: irishlitsoc.org/event/foreig...
