I am very excited to see the dummy of the book that I have been designing for the visual artist, Rose Frain. The book is being printed on 150gsm Munken Lynx Smooth with endpapers of Colorplan Smoke Grey 135gsm by Allander, in Edinburgh. The cover is printed metallic silver and black with a spot colour, on GalerieArt Satin with a scuff-free laminate; it will be bound by Charles Letts & Co., based in Dalkeith, who also made the dummy.
Rose Frain has been realised with an award from Creative Scotland and will be published by Sissy Graffiti in September 2019, with launch events and related exhibitions at the Glasgow Women’s Library, Newcastle University, and Goldsmiths, University of London. The book features 18 of the artist’s major projects, citing stylistic and conceptual developments; it includes critical essays, full chronology and a bibliography.
