A large-scale solo show by printmaker and illustrator Paul Catherall features the latest of his distinctive linocut prints. Many recent commissions for the likes of the Southbank Centre, long-standing client Transport for London, Google and law firm Pinsent Masons will be on show.
The work of Catherall is eminently recognisable in the simplicity and boldness of its composition and linocut execution. Inspired by mid-20th century travel posters and designers such as Tom Eckersley and Tom Purvis, Catherall developed his own style, increasingly informed by his printing method.
It’s about a “quality that’s fairly abstract, where elements are missing and your eye does your work for you”, he says. “I’m exploring what to leave out rather than what to leave in, and getting the negative shapes to do the work.”
While studying illustration, Catherall also started to enjoy the “laborious, messy method” of linocut printing. Initially, he appreciated the way it would allow him to recreate an old litho style, but gradually he became obsessed with the process. “The more you get into the print process, the more you become obsessed with the sheet of the ink and the finish you get,” he says. “The whole feel and textures just becomes a slight obsession.”
Paul Catherall’s take on Portcullis House
His work graces numerous London institutions, not surprising given his inclination to depict the capital’s landmarks – the celebrated and despised alike – including the new Shard (see ‘Pink Shard, above, created as a one-off artist’s cover for Wallpaper magazine).

Each print takes several weeks to complete, and Catherall enjoys the fact that the process combines the physical and the creative. “I think it does show. With everything you can generally see the time that’s gone into it.”
And as for those landmarks, Catherall says he will never get bored of them: “It’s usually that I want to revisit something; you become less bored and far more involved,” he says. “I’ve become a bit obsessive.”
Paul Catherall at the Gallery@OXO (Oxo Tower Wharf, Bargehouse Street, London SE1) runs from May 1-19. A limited edition of prints is available for sale.

Digital agency ACNE is behind a very enjoyable interactive film designed for Y-3, the collaborative fashion venture from adidas and Yohji Yamamoto…
Using the keyboard visitors to Y-3.com/film can make their own audio-visual film piece. Press any letter key and the action cuts to a new section of video, any number key and the film can be manipulated and distorted in a multitude of different ways. Tim Hecker, celebrated composer of distorted audio treats, supplies the soundtrack.
Of course, all this goes some way to showcase the Y-3 Spring/Summer 2013 collection (and the fact that Yamamoto and adidas have been collaborating for ten years), but filmmakers can also record and share a 30-second clip of their work.
CR’s effort, featuring more effects than you can shake a well-dressed stick at, is here.

Milan 2013: Rossana Orlandi curated an exhibition of work by designers including Nacho Carbonell, Front and Studio Libertiny at the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum in Milan.
Spanish designer Carbonell hung loops of silicone tubing from metalwork angled at 45 degrees then filled them with blue LED lights, creating a chandelier commissioned by fashion brand Vionnet (top).
He also exhibited a chair with wings of steel cubes and marble sculptures that resemble cat-giraffe hybrids.
Among the 15 other artists and studios that presented work, JamesPlumb contributed a sofa with a cast concrete seat and Maarten Baas showed his purposefully inaccurate time-keeping device for Laikingland.
A cabinet shaped by a mathematical calculation to absorb noises by Dirk Vander Kooij and a yellow mobile prototype lamp from Front’s lastest collection were also on display.
Open for Milan’s design week earlier this month, the exhibition was located in the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum – a 19th century family house converted into a museum to preserve its interiors and display the family’s decorative arts collection.
A small wire-mesh house designed by Italian studio CLS Architetti was constructed underneath the grand staircase to host the museum’s shop, also curated by Orlandi.
Elsewhere in Milan, Moooi presented their new collection among giant portraits and Jean Nouvel has set out his vision for the office environments of the future.

Here’s the press release from the museum:
2.0 an Exhibition at the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum – Milan
Two Landlords and two Ladies, plus a magnificent Mansion have created an exhibition that opens up a dialogue between past and present trends.
Like one would do with a flower composition, 16 artists display their pieces in an untouched environment of blissful past beauty developed over the centuries by a generous family who later wished to share their home with everyone.
Fausto and Giuseppe Bagatti Valsecchi, together with patroness Goga Ashkenazi and Rossana Orlandi who provided the creative inspiration for it, are celebrating a new interpretation of a red thread bridging the Past with the Contemporary spirit.
From Home to Home, the endless and timeless journey of artworks and exquisite pieces that are made to last is marked by a softly inspirational beginning, as Rossana Orlandi did it, almost silently and cosily placing 14 chairs into the rooms of the Museum for the watchmen to rest and proving that beautiful objects never clash but rather nurture each other. Nacho Carbonell’s magnificent Chandelier inspired by Maison Vionnet is one of the multi-faceted interpretations of the concept of mixing forty-five degrees and blue.
The rooms host artworks from Front Design, Studio Deform, Paul Heijnen, Niels Hoebers, Tomas Libertiny, Yukiko Nagai, Frederique Morrel, Dirk Vander Kooij, Maarten Baas, Martin Smith, President Von Pelt, Enrico Marone Cinzano, Massimiliano Locatelli Cls Architetti, Manuela Crotti and Giampiero Milella.
A rejuvenating feeling around a family museum and the beginning of a passionate endeavour.

Adidas has rolled out a simple activation campaign to celebrate the 40th birthday of Sachin Tendulkar – and its ongoing relationship with the Indian cricket legend.
In a campaign created by TBWA India, the sports brand turned Mumbai’s urban landscapes, which often host impromptu cricket matches by the city’s youngers, into more recognisable cricket pitches – “a little gift for the city that gave us Sachin”, as the campaign states. It plastered hundreds of its ‘Wall Cricket’ posters, transparent films featuring wooden cricket stumps, across the city – on walls, garage doors, cement bags, oil drums and parked cars.
Cricket fanatics are usually quite good at improvising stumps, but the posters add a nice touch, and seem to have gone down well with the city’s aspiring Sachins, going by the accompanying YouTube video (see below).
