We were invited to present our artists and photographers at this year’s Le Book Connections event at the Royal Horticultural Halls in London. The idea is to exhibit portfolios at one great big meet and greet – where agents, creatives, art buyers (and anyone else lucky enough to blag a ticket) can all get together and discover some talented new artists – whilst reviewing portfolios, catching up with old colleagues, and hopefully doing some business in between the free drinks. This year we presented new work by new Big Active artists Jesse Auersalo and Filipe Jardim as well as photographer William Selden.

Harlan Ellison – respect to this man. Richard Bull from Yatch Associates originally turned me on to this clip. Celebrated as one of the greatest US screenwriters of the twentieth century Harlan is the man who preaches a mantra for all creatives to aspire too. Art and commerce have always been somewhat awkward bedfellows, but Harlan definitely tells it like it is. You can see more here http://www.creatvdiff.com/harlan_ellison.php
