Musical Types, 2009

 

Looking for an unusual Christmas gift? Head down to Advanced Graphics Gallery, where an exhibition of work by letterpress specialist Alan Kitching is on show...

 

Kitching is marking 20 years of work from The Typography Workshop with the exhibition, which he is holding in conjunction with his partner and creative collaborator Celia Stothard. The show provides an overview of the past two decades of their work, and a number of the prints will be available for purchase.

 

Homage To Hendrix, 2008


The Typography Workshop Anniversary Exhibition is on until December 19, more info at advancedgraphics.co.uk.

May we continue to see his bright and happy work for another 20 long years!

A real personality in an industry increasingly monotonised by style trends...

There are few things that shiver me up with more happy deliciousness than letterpress. Letterpress is dead! Long live letterpress!

Great prints, looks like it'll be a good exhibition. Nice to see letterpress is still represented well, out there - and in such bright and lovely colours!

I am a big lover of good typography, it is everywhere around us and only appreciated by a few.

hi Eliza, this is a great show, with lots of theatrical and musical associations (like the left-handed Hendrix tribute) and put together with love and care

there’s a big piece about The Typography Workshop (by Celia Stothard) in the next Eye, and there’s an Eye evening with Alan and Celia this Thursday at Advanced Graphics in aid of a good cause, the Kitching/Stothard trust.
