Siggi Eggertsson’s latest personal project sees him taking posters from the first half of the 20th century, stripping out their main images and autotracing the type. By removing the subject images and flattening out the colours, Siggi draws attention to the shape of the type, rather than what the text is saying. Visit Typography, autotraced here.

Last night David Foldvari’s first solo exhibition opened at London’s The Outsider’s. The exhibition, called Trouble, features both large and small-scale drawings. The focus of this exhibition is on David’s interest in the self-conscious within the social context and the result is a continuation of his eyeless men placed in classical portraiture poses.

The exhibition runs until 30th July.
