🎧 86. Anthony Burrill, Graphic artist
on Spotify / on Apple Podcasts
[PLAYER]
Anthony combines his love for analogue craft skills with positive messages. His work is instantly recognizable, his pieces all bear the marks of his letterpress process and all its joyful idiosyncrasies. His work is also held in the permanent collections of many museums and exhibited all around the world.
We talked about the many lives of Anthony Burrill – about summer jobs, his early work in web design, his work for MTV, cultural changes, weird books, David Hockney, and I had a chance to psycho analyse him a bit.
