a little blurb from the Marsea about the show....

"The past decade and half of New Image Art has been a wild ride! It has been the greatest honor to be able to work with and know many of our artists and gallery supporters. All the unknowns, underdogs, avant-gurardians, newbies, bad-asses, and geniuses; all of them a part of the very fabric that makes up New Image Art.

The 15 year anniversary party will serve as a retrospective show – a show of shows if you will. Many of our artists over the past 15 years have been asked to contribute in memorializing this event by representing what it is they do best. We are striving to communicate the essence of New Image Art = ultimate creativity, this is everyone’s party!!

We will be showing videos and slide presentations and inviting our favorite past musical guests for live performances, dancing, and an all around good time."

a few bits from the graphic project i worked on with siggi eggertsson awhile ago where we swapped files back and forth for 8 weeks. you can see the whole thing on his newly updated site.

i'm excited to be a part of the Wilkintie family. im working on my letterpress print for the series now and will let you know when its finished and will be available.



some of the other artists in the series include: Tim Biskup, Klaus Haapaniemi, & Merijn Hos

a little blurb from the site about what it's all about:
Wilkintie is a project by Carly Hargreaves and Niels Oeltjen, a couple living in Melbourne, Australia. This project evolved from a love of letterpress printing and a desire to collaborate with the amazing artists we discover in our day-to-day lives. The illustration we came in contact with as youngsters shaped our lives and we wanted to create something for today’s children that infuses their lives with the same inspiration and joy that we experienced back then. We also recognise that we are part of a community of grown-ups who love the imagination, whimsy and joy of illustration for children.
