The Art Of Lost Words

The Art of Lost Words is an exhibition I visited in March at the German Gymnasium at Kings Cross in London that ties in well with this project. The exhibition was of design, typography and Illustration inspired by forgotten words. 47 artists chose from the dictionary's forgotten words with an open brief to create an original work inspired by their choice.
This was a great exhibition with a really wide range of images. The ones I feel will be useful for the letterpress project are Brian Webb's 'Plegnic' incorporating letterpress and image, 'Rubefacience' by Alan Kitching and 'Pseudisodomous' by Kelvyn Laurence Smith.
