    Book SynopsisThis is the first in a new series of 50 Watts zines about books and illustration. I think the 60s and 70s were probably one the most creatively interesting periods for everyone. Art, music, film all pushing the envelope. New York City was affordable and fun, fertile in its influences. Book cover art, book jacket art was fun concept art, a bit more free than other illustration work. --Manny SchongutEmanuel Schongut studied art under Richard Lindner at Pratt Institute, graduating in 1960 with an MFA. He worked in watercolor, pencil, and pen and ink, and was represented by Push Pin Studios in the 1970s. In addition to his book cover designs, he worked in editorial and advertising illustration and illustrated over twenty children's books. His archive is now held by the Norman Rockwell Museum. Manny and I worked on this zine in the fall of 2022, before he passed away in December. His covers are reproduced here with the blessing of Rick Sacks, Manny's nephew. Dedicated to the memory of Emanuel (Manny) Schongut (1936-2022).

    Book SynopsisOut Side embraces the limitations of new AI tools as constraints for creation. Faces, hands, landscapes appear in their raw hallucinated state.These often flawed or surreal depictions express the underlying ambiguity of the story: in what dimension do the characters live? Why do laws of space and time seem to bend around them? Are these aporias unique to this story or are they an essential quality of all fiction, all storytelling?As AI systems evolve, we can expect more fine-grained artistic control of generated images and text. Out Side captures a pivotal moment for culture, story, and image at the moment of AI's birth.

    Book SynopsisAnna McCarthy's artist book is a collection of her popular pencil drawings of amorphous figures. Sentient figures trickle and ooze their way through different states of equilibrium; some self-contained fountains, clouds, or gusts of wind, whilst others have formed groups and seem to be planning something, communicating in fields of pylons and mountain landscapes. They are endearing with their big eyes and friendly doughy, cloud-like appearance, carrying sandwich lunchboxes, melting over and spilling into structures, morphing, and possibly disrupting the geometry of lines in pylons. Charming harbingers of chaos.

    Book SynopsisGemma Correll's whimsical illustrations capture all Fido's moods from perky scamp to loyal, obedient protector. Although this book does present a vast array of canine shenanigans for our amusement, be forewarned — you'll also get some startling insights into what your dog is really thinking about you (and, it may not always be complimentary — not that you will really mind). You see, dogs have insinuated themselves into our lives as no other creatures could. What's more, they know they'll always have a place in our hearts. Why else do we lavish them with yummy treats and belly scratches? There's something about a wagging tail and a soulful stare that's just too hard to resist. Text in English, German and French.

  • Tinus Vermeersch

    APE Tinus Vermeersch

    1 in stock

    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.

    Faber & Faber Words Pictures

    Book SynopsisAs children, learning to read, we look first at the illustrations but how do these tell their stories differently to the words? Words & Pictures explores this question through three encounters between writers and artists. It looks at how artists have responded to two great, contrasting works, Paradise Lost and Pilgrim's Progress; at Hogarth and Fielding, great innovators, sharing common aims; and at Wordsworth and Bewick, a poet and engraver, both working separately, but both imbued with the spirit of their age. A brief coda turns to a fourth relationship: writers and artists who collaborate from the start, like Dickens and Phiz, and Lewis Carroll and Tenniel. Sometimes amusing, sometimes moving, this is a book to pore over and enjoy. The visions it considers link daily life to the universal, the passionate and the sublime.
