Two exhibition openings in London!

Here are a few photos from our recent exhibition events. First we were in the Bookery Gallerie on 10th June, for the vernissage, or private view, of The Graphic Novels of Mary Talbot. It’s a lovely gallery bookshop space.

The following evening we did an illustrated talk there on our work together. Did anyone manage to watch it on Zoom? Who knows? Two great events, anyway.

On 14th June, Bryan’s major Arkwright retrospective, Luther Arkwright: 50 years of a British comics legend, opened in the Cartoon Museum. It’s a brilliant exhibition – well worth a visit – and there’s a great review of it by James Bacon on Down the Tubes.

Here’s Bryan with award-winning SF writer, Adrian Tchaikovsky:

And with Kavus Torabi, musician and composer, record label owner and broadcaster (the strange figure in the background is a puppet version of Roy Hattersley: the eponymous Spitting Image!):

Here we are with snooker legend Steve Davis and Helena Nash, creator of the Grandville figurines:

We had good company in Pizza Express afterwards! Around the table are Yomi ‘Clockwork Watch’ Ayeni, Bryan, Steve Davis, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Kavus Torabi, scholar Matt Green, myself and Claire Ayeni.
