Blog/Retrospective-One


Kemistry Gallery has asked eleven previous exhibitors to create pieces to celebrate four years exhibiting outstanding graphic design and illustration. With a lineup that speaks for itself, Retrospective—One is bringing together Experimental Jetset, Eine, James Joyce, Parra and Geoff McFetridge among others in a line up of graphic design all-stars. Pieces include hand-drawn typography, one-off collages, lightboxes, print editions, and objects showcasing the breadth of graphic design both as a communication form and as a aesthetic skill.

I’m a bit late on reporting this, but wow, what a line-up. If you’re in Shoreditch, don’t miss this show. In the meantime, you can read Wallpaper’s review of the show here.

The show poster was designed by Proud Creative.

And Kemistry likes pink too.
