Recommended Art Books, by John The Badgers on May 18, 2024 18:23:48 GMT 1, I am a big fan Of Russell Herron's work, the 'cardboard portraits' series a fascinating project.
All items hand drawn, quite something, some of the nicest bits I own.
He's compiling a book being released next year when all 500 portraits will be completed. You can 'reserve' one now -
500 SMALL CARDBOARD PORTRAITS BOOK
The keen-eyed among you will have noticed that the graphite portraits above have now reached over 400. So, less than 100 to go and the series will be complete. Work has started on designing the book - 500 SMALL CARDBOARD PORTRAITS - and this will be published in 2025 with images of all 500 drawings. If you want to express interest in reserving a copy of this book (no obligation, just an opportunity to buy later) please let me know. If you think you might have reserved already but can't remember, you can always ask me to check the reserve list and I'll let you know. Thanks again for all the support. Lots more details to come in the future on this.
Contact details on his website -
www.russellherron.com/
He's a right nice fella, and I'm sure he will help you out if you are interested.

He only releases only a few at a time (8 this month) so need to be quick as itโs fastest first and he doesnโt do presales.
I wonโt be buying any more of the small ones (probably ๐) and lucky I got in before the next UAA rush.
A nice little touch, is if you buy a small portrait you can name it and this name will appear in the book.

They are genuinely lovely items. Have quite varied bits here, the drawings I Have from Russell always the first to be commented on.
The skill in the drawing I find fascinating, and the project itself worth reading up on.
I think the comments above cover about getting any, can I add, he really is a nice chap.
I contacted him before I posted above, and he was really appreciative. So perhaps if/when you contact him, might be worth mentioning the Book Thread on UAA, I'm sure he will help.

He captures all the crazy, scary, wonderful, happy, sad and odd moments we all encountered during lockdown perfectly. The Shrigley is pure bonkers and everyone should read it. This is bobblehead, a tiny Bob Ross complete with easel and flip book of paintings. When you press the button he talks. He's amazing.

A few years ago i was shopping in Harlow on Boxing Day and i bumped in to Penny and Gee doing there shopping, made my day. I was ready to buy it when I have found in the second market, the first edition of first Geeโs book (1999) for 40 โฌ ( the big book is at 65)โฆ Ian Dury said : Art. In its original form, Gee V's work is intricate and tactile, and while the imagery is sometimes almost overwhelming, the primary concerns are those of the painter; dealing with form and space. Mere newsprint would hardly seem able to do justice to its subtle tones. When the work is printed, the space becomes more simple and the graphic images take on another life. The visual concerns are those of delivery, and the message is clear. Painstakingly executed and almost private paintings are transformed into powerful illustrations by the brilliance of Gee V's vision. While the stenches of corruption and injustice do linger, it is an honorable thing to point or even lift a finger -- Ian Dury

Andy Warhol Enterprises Indianapolis Museum of Art 2011
Throughout his career as an artist, filmmaker, director of the Factory, band manager, magazine publisher, and television entrepreneur, Andy Warhol intentionally blurred the line between art and commerce, calling into question the very values of art by claiming, โGood business is the best art.โ Andy Warhol Enterprises examines Warhol's complex and multifaceted relationship with commerce in both his work and his lifeโfrom his highly successful career as a commercial artist to his reign as a major cultural trendsetter in the eighties
Wasnโt aware of this book but stumbled across it on www.booksaboutart.co.uk/ which is a nice place to find some gems.
