Above: Swoon 
Above ashes57 I visited a small poster art exhibition after attending a zine fair at the Art Corner (R.I.P) were a member of the one69a guys suggested i visit a poster exhibition at COrd. The exhibition was mainly fine artsy/graphicy/surreal/commercial posters that varied in what they were trying to convey,stylistically. Personally i favour the more surreal,sci-fi, collaged style but also interesting typography and characterisation with splashes of colour. I actually forgot my camera on this particular day...slightly annoying but i've managed to find some work by the collaborations/artists featured in the show..some more recent, such as a public art, screen printing project by ONE69a, who are heavily based at Islington mill. They work in scree printing on various different materials and for purposes such as exhibitions,festivals to restaurant menus.
