At Nicer Tuesdays November we’ll be hearing from Vice’s newest editor,Avaunt’sdirector of photography, an illustrator who took on the world, and a writer who has a bone to pick with the industry. Get ticketshere.
Jack Hudsontook on the mammoth task of art directing and illustratingThe Earth and I, a book by 97-year-old scientific visionary James Lovelock, cover to cover. He’ll be telling us the fascinating story behind the project, which saw him illustrate “pretty much everything that exists on the entire planet – no biggie!”
Gemma Germains recently caused quite a stir with her article on It’s Nice That, titledWork hard, be nice to people and have rich parents, addressing privilege in the creative industry. She’ll be talking candidly about her experience of the industry’s bias, and what we can do about it.
Avaunt magazinejust released issue four, with two starkly different covers and a vast array of photographic styles and subject matter inside. Madeleine Penny, the magazine’s director of photography, will be talking us through the work, and her commissioning and curating process.
Jamie Cliftonjoined Vice as an intern in 2011 and has recently been appointed editor of UK Vice.com. He’ll be taking us behind the scenes at Vice, and telling us how he finds and works with all sorts of creatives, from illustrator Sam Taylor to photographer Chris Bethell.
