Greek Myths is a spellbinding, complete and innovative retelling of the some of the oldest and greatest tales of all time Unlike in many previous collected myths, female characters take centre stage - Athena, Helen, Circe, Penelope and others weave these stories into elaborate imagined tapestries. In Charlotte Higgins's thrilling new interpretation, their tales combine to form a dazzling, sweeping epic of storytelling, and a magnificent work of scholarship and imagination. Turner prizewinning artist Chris Ofili’s original drawings inspired by Charlotte Higgins' text appear on the cover and throughout the book, which you can get a peek of over @jonathancape. The cover drawing is a detail taken from the work ‘The Judgement of Paris’. Greek Myths is available from today. #bookdesign #bookcover #newbooks #jacketdesign #graphicdesign #coverdesign #bookillustration #literaryfiction #chrisofili #mythsandlegends #greekmyths https://www.instagram.com/p/CTmsXM8tljW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Artists have a variety of methods to make their mark. Every Friday we will share a photograph of an #ArtistInAction. Chris Ofili is an English painter who lives and works in Trinidad, London, and Brooklyn. His paintings are known for their vibrant palette and technical intricacy, often involving collage and untraditional materials such as glitter, resin, magazine cut-outs, and notably, elephant dung. Born in 1968 in Manchester, England Ofili received his B.F.A. from the Chelsea School of Art in 1991, and his M.F.A. from the Royal College of Art in 1993. His early works were more abstract, and he is better known for his figurative work where he employs sexual, historical, or religious references to investigate and challenge racial stereotypes, while celebrating black culture. #chrisofili Image: Chris Ofili by Stephen Gill (1999)
