Oblique Strategies

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

On the first day back after the Christmas holidays Kit rediscovered Oblique Strategies on his desk.
This deck of cards created by musician Brian Eno and artist Peter Schmidt in 1975 will help break through a creative block. Though produced with musicians in mind, this selection of aphorisms can be applied to most creative practices.

Each card offers a strategy to overcome a creative block.
Ideal for those deciding on their New Years resolutions or needing to resolve a dilemma.


A random selection of Oblique Strategies:

Give way to your worst impulse
Question the heroic approach
What would your closest friend do?
Is there something missing?
Use 'unqualified' people
Remove ambiguities and convert to specifics

House of Voltaire pop up shop

We went to the House of Voltaire launch yesterday afternoon and the shop is looking great.

We couldn't resist a beautiful tea towel made by Art House Meath and are seriously considering the Stefania Pramma x House of Voltaire leather bag... Well worth checking out.

News: House of Voltaire

Over the past few weeks we have been working away on some exciting products for House of Voltaire, the pop-up shop from South London gallery Studio Voltaire which opens this wednesday.

We have produced a T-shirt designed by Åbäke, a fan by artist Anthea Hamilton, a silk wall hanging from Cary Kwok and exclusive scarf from Turner Prize nominee Mark Titchner.

House of Voltaire is open 21 November - 15 December at Jonathan Viner Gallery, 17a Adam's Row, Mayfair.

Grayson Perry table mats

The Grayson Perry mats we made with the artist for Yoox have landed! Available here.

GRAYSON PERRY: “ Why have I chosen to have my tapestry images made into a set of table mats? The Vanity of Small Differences is about taste and class in British society and table mats, like net curtains, caravans, tattoos and having a clean car seemed to be one of the clearer symbols that divided the socio economic classes … when I researched taste for my television series I encountered table mats in all parts of society, protecting a glass coffee table in a hairdressers house, pseudo-ironically arrayed on a vintage dining table and casually strewn ready for breakfast for a man who owns a castle and six thousand acres. So who knows , buy these without fear.”
