Repeat Repeat

https://www.freelandsfoundation.co.uk/Freelands Foundation was founded by Elisabeth Murdoch and is based in Camden, London. The Foundation’s mission is to support artists and cultural institutions, to broaden audiences for the visual arts and to enable all young people to engage actively with the creation and enjoyment of art.

The multidisciplinary group exhibition, Repeat Repeat, was curated by Freelands Foundation Creative Director Henry Ward. The show investigates ideas of daily practice and repeated routine while addressing questions relating to domesticity, parenting and occupation. It features internationally recognised artists alongside creative individuals who would not necessarily call themselves artists.

This is the literature produced to support the exhibition. The portrait format publication which consists of a 4pp cover on Colorset Flint 270gsm with a 24pp text printed on StarFine White 150gsm.
The cover on 100% Recycled Colorset Flint 270gsm is beautifully debossed and hot foil blocked in matt white foil.
The text pages are printed offset litho in CMYK on our StarFine White 150gsm, an uncoated text paper which has printed beautifully, with the solid and the images looking brilliant.

The saddle stitching is nice and neat and the job sits nice and flat.
The publication is designed by Utile. Creative Director is Nicholas Duggins and designer is William Lyall. Print is by Identity Print, based in Paddock Wood with Paul Martin handling the project.

Fault Lines

https://www.freelandsfoundation.co.uk/Freelands Foundation was founded by Elisabeth Murdoch and is based in Camden, London. The Foundation is run by Managing Director, Melanie Cassoff and Creative Director, Henry Ward. The Foundation’s mission is to support artists and cultural institutions, to broaden audiences for the visual arts and to enable all young people to engage actively with the creation and enjoyment of art.

Fault Lines is the title of the exhibition held at the foundation last year. Curated by Freelands Artist Programme Curator, Edward Ball, the show connected work from four UK-based artists whose sculptural works, and the material processes that underpin them, suggest a ripple of instability in their very foundations.
This is the literature produced to support the exhibition. The portrait format publication which consists of a 16pp outer text (186x124mm) on Offenbach Bible 60gsm and you can see the show through working positively with the word 'Lines' showing through...
The 12pp inner section is A5 (210x148mm) and is used to shows the work. The birdseye view below, shows the smaller outside text with the A5 inner.
The binding is saddle stitched, so it opens nice and flat. The outer text section on Offenbach Bible is printed in just one colour, which is a pantone special, in green.
The inner text section is printed offset litho in CMYK plus a special pantone (green) on our StarFine White 170gsm, an uncoated text paper which has printed beautifully, with the solid and the images looking brilliant.
The below image shows the superbly finished saddle stitching, nice neat and flat...
There are many posts on this blog, showing work printed on Offenbach Bible 60gsm which has lots of four colour, solid colours and really demanding printing. Arguably, this job, with just one colour type printed both sides, demonstrates more what Offenbach Bible is produced for. Genuine bible papers, are produced with exceptional opacity, good strength and archival quality. This publication shows just how good the opacity is and is just as demanding as many jobs which are covered in colour and images. The type looks exquisite - surely the combination of the typeface, the printing and the paper.
The whole publication flows beautifully - an inside out job in may ways with the heavier material on the inside and the lighter material on the outside.
The publication is designed by Utile. Creative Director is Nicholas Duggins and designer is William Lyall. Print is by Identity Print, based in Paddock Wood with Paul Martin handling the project.
