What better way to pave his way to France than with this new poster he designed for Colette, the chic-chic boutique on Rue St. Honoré.  David who asked Lalande to print this work for him, has been working in the art world for years, designing a full range of objects and bags and branding imagery for the likes of The New Museum, The Ecology Center, MoCA and tons of other high end visual arts organizations.

The End of the World: New Print For Keep Calm

THE END OF THE WORLD (REALLY BUILT TO LAST) is Paris-based artist Matthew Rose's latest surreal fantasy about the fragility of world we live in and the end of the world we've built. 

 

Based on an original collage from 2008, THE END OF THE WORLD, reports from the frontiers of the real and dream worlds, where foods and animals, naughty little boys and errant little girls enter into the visual field and run, jump, hang and float in and around an assortment of human narratives that are veering dangerously out of control. Like in life.

This work, and others in the series, will appear in Masters of Collage (Lark Publishing, USA) in May 2010 along with 40 other contemporary artists.

This full color print measures 25 x 25 cm, and also has a border for framing.  Signed and numbered in an edition of 85, the print, produced by Lalande Digital Art Press Paris costs 38 UK Pounds exclusively from Keep Calm Gallery.  Click here to go to Keep Calm Gallery to see detailed images and order.

K-TYPE : Font Of Genius

UK Font designer Keith Bates and his K-Type is something of a genius in the typography world.  And a legend already.  His "Norton" type face is used on Jon Stewart's THE DAILY SHOW and he has created niche fonts as homages for artists and friends as well.

Keith writes: "K-Type Norton is the choice of typeface for “Old Man Stewart” on the current series of top US satire, The Daily Show. The font which is based on the four characters in the old Norton motorcycles logo, has been updated for contemporary use and expanded to include a lower case and our usual full compliment of accented characters."

Keith's Ray Johnson font (HOW TO DRAW RAY JOHNSON) is being used for A BOOK ABOUT DEATH, a global mail art project. (A Mail Art font exists as well). And fonts for Roy Lichtenstein and others are total winners. The typography artist creates fonts for both commercial and personal use. Check him out.

Benoît Delhaye : Un Portrait Numérique

Nouveau chez Lalande/Polyflash : Benoît Delhaye, 20 ans d'éxperience dans la numérique. "Je suis content d'être admis au sein de 'l'équipe de rêve' de Polyflash."

Transfuge de la photographie, il s'est retrouvé de fil en aiguille avec du cyan sur les mains et, dit-il "C'est le cœur en fête que numériquement j'imprime tout ce que je peux chez Bob 'Polyflash' Ruscoe!"

Ben travaille avec l'image et la musique, ses deux passions, la photo, il explique fait bouger son imagination: "La photo car dans un univers surexcité en expansion (il a du mérite actuellement), j'aime la méditation induite dans l'image fixe, ainsi que la relative liberté du spectateur d'y mettre le contenu qu'il choisit.  

Ben joue la musique avec son group de jazz, TRIOGUS, partout à Paris. Ça fait partie du son univers creatif: "La musique...c'est une merveilleuse communion entre amis, que de 'faire des pains' sur la même grille!"

MAI 68 AFFICHES

Keep Calm Gallery is celebrating revolution with a range of silk-screened street posters from May 1968.  Each poster is available for about 30 euros each. But hurry if you want one, many are already sold out.

To commemorate the revolutionary spirit of 1968 the Hayward Gallery is presenting the first major display in the UK of posters produced by students and workers in Paris during strikes of May 1968.

Produced anonymously by art students and striking workers, the posters were distributed for free. The bold graphic messages appeared on the barricades, were carried in demonstrations and plastered on walls across France. The exhibition at the Hayward Gallery will include 46 posters taken from the collection of the American writer and curator Johan Kugelberg.

The year of 1968 was one of great political and social upheaval in France. Anger and frustration over issues such as poverty and unemployment gave rise to a mass movement for social change. A wave of strikes, walkouts and demonstrations by students followed by a general strike, paralysed the French capital.

In the middle of May 1968 students and faculty took over the Ecole des Beaux Arts to form the Atelier Populaire (popular workshop), producing hundreds of silkscreen posters in an extraordinary outpouring of politically graphic art. Described as ‘weapons in the service of the struggle’ the purpose and intended locations for the posters were the streets and factories where the struggles were taking place. (Text from www.parismai68.net)

To coincide with the exhibition and to commemorate the 40 year anniversary of the Paris riots of 1968 a limited edition book has been produced by The Orange Dot. Each book contains hand screen printed reproductions of 40 original Mai 68 posters. Keep Calm Gallery are pleased to have been given the opportunity to offer a very limited number of printers proofs of these reproductions. Unlike the posters collated in the limited edition Mai 68 books, these printers proofs are available individually at Keep Calm Gallery for a short time only.

LALANDE : WE DELIVER

Lalande Digital Art Press Wizard, Robert Ruscoe, ready to deliver printed materials on our new totally green, human-powered distribution system. A bicycling fanatic, Robert has long held the idea that if we print ecologically sound posters, cards, books and digital prints, we should also deliver them that way, too. "Plus, it allows me to visit all of Paris," he says.  "And I get to wear these cool duds."

It's cold out there, Robert.

Democrats Abroad : Obama Postcard

A très bientôt,

Tony"

Max Mulhern : American in London

London-based American artist Max Mulhern (and Lalande Digital Art Press client) is busy making pedestals these days when he is not writing for the formidable ART BLOG, Roberta Fallon and Libby Rossof's amazing art world net.  Max has produced a Duchampian boxed set of his pedestals (the Swiss pedestal unfolds like the famous army knife), with which he walks around London Town showing dealers.  He unveiled them in Philadelphia to Libby and Roberta (click here to read). 

"I've also made hundreds of drawings that reinvent the idea of sailing, floating and moving over water," says Mulhern.  "It's the narrative arc of my life as I become a boat."  In his studio there are text pieces like "FLOAT," and others of wood bits and people floating. 

The current project is to decapitate sculpture in a friendly and compelling way by pushing forward with the full range of possible pedestals, perhaps producing a functioning chess set or offering boxed sets. The idea behind the pedestals is a thrilling mixed metaphor about art and what keeps it afloat.

Dog Art For The Holidays

Moira McLaughlin digs her dogs, and she's put together a range of dog art works for the holidays on her site, Dog Art Today. Here you will find a playful doggy bag, if you will, filled with delightful dauchshunds, dalmations and more of her dream dog art favorites.  Like what?  Like this sculpture, above, made entirely out of crayolas. It's not digital but we love it. "The Yellow Lab Crayon Dog sculpture by Herb Williams made of Crayolas," writes Moira. "OK, it's $18,000, but it's brilliant and it smells like your childhood.  From Vivre."
