FAVOURITE PUBLICATIONS FOR 2018, SO FAR...
Vitamin P3
New Perspectives in Painting
Phaidon Editors
Part of the ongoing Vitamin series, the cover of P3 was too good to pass up. A great collection of artists pushing the boundaries of painting. The amazing ‘paint globules’ on the cover and the ‘paint swirls’ for the page edges turn this book into an artwork in its own right.
Blind Spot
Teju Cole
During his travels, Teju Cole used his camera as an extension of his memory. “The images are a tourist’s pictures,” he says, but it wasn’t until he “began to match words to these interconnected images” that this book came to life.
