We are curating an ongoing, limited edition small book series, focusing on the inseparable connection between music and art. Each month, a visual artist or musician will be asked to create a 24-page book of artworks, drawing inspiration from their connection to music. The different ways in which each artist chooses to represent their connection to music is what makes this ongoing series so intriguing and diverse.
Each book will be limited to 1000 copies, printed on thick stock, offset, box-scored and saddle stitched, and come packaged in a 10″ jacket. The jackets for each edition will be identical, therefore keeping the collection’s overall outward design aesthetic consistent. However, there will be a distinct letterpressed sticker wrapping the opening of the jacket for each installment featuring a replication of the artist’s signature, the volume, installment number, and edition.
The premiere edition of the series debuted in July and featured the work of LA’s Jason Yates, with monthly installments following featuring Shaun Flynn, Daniel Higgs, Hisham Bharoocha, and Bongout to date.
The series will be sold exclusively through Soundscreen Design, Insound, and a select group of retailers. While stand alone sales of each installment will be available, the only way to ensure you get a copy of each installment, and thus a complete set, is to purchase a full year subscription.
