BIS Publishers B.V. The Art of Parenting: The Things They Don’t Tell
Book SynopsisThere is an art to parenting, but nobody knows what it is. All the ‘how to’ books can never prepare you for the fun that lies ahead. The Art of Parenting is a must-have for soon-to-be or new parents. It is a pictorial guide to the things only parents of little ones know, and the new ones should know. The early years of parenting are graphically pictured in humorous one-page illustrations that everyone will recognise. In a straightforward and simplistic manner, Drew de Soto captures the funny, smelly and sometimes difficult moments with new-borns and toddlers.

New Heroes & Pioneers The Ordinary And The Odd
Book Synopsis"The Ordinary and The Odd" is the first book from artist and graphic designer, Swen Swensøn. Swensøn’s use of simple and minimilst illustrations, evoking playful and sometimes odd encounters is a pleasure for any viewer of his work. His style is instantly recognisable and each image conjures the imagination to create stories that can be both quirky and also calming. In this book we see Swensøn encapsulate a variety of themes including: urban landscape, nature, transport and engineering and human life. Through subtle and peaceful tones, each image touches on a quiet moment that is perhaps contrasted with a surprising twist or sense of anticipation. Graphic illustration is ever more present in our visual world and media. Characters and scenes depicted are relatable to a wide audience and Swensøn’s work is relates to our lives through recognisable content in his art, requiring us to stay still, consider the scene and reflect.

APE Tinus Vermeersch
Book SynopsisVermeersch's drawings and paintings are reminiscent of a long tradition of Northern European painting inspired by masters like Breughel and Bosch. Drawing sensitively on dreams, rituals and impressions of life the artist creates meticulously crafted compositions. I like seeing my work as fragments and hints of lost epic times and vernacular societies, as parts or details ripped out of a larger context, the artist says, referring to himself as a archeologist of sorts who is in search for the story between the few scattered remains I have collected and inventoried. The viewer is invited to be part of this search and to put together the pieces of their own story for which Tinus Vermeersch provides his finds and fragments. Tinus Vermeersch studied Painting at the Koninklijke Academie voor Schone Kunsten, Gent, 1994-96 and Sculpture at the Hoger Instituut voor Beeldende Kunsten, Sint-Lucas, Gent 1996-99. Vermeersch's work are in many private collections and in public collections as the MuZee, Oostende, Broelmuseum Kortrijk, MUba Tourcoing France, The FranksSuss Collection London, Vlaams Parlement Brussel, Stad Harelbeke and the Provincie West-Vlaanderen.
