Location: Logan Hall, London
Writer, poet, performer and broadcaster Ian McMillan and seasoned image maker Andy Martin have collaborated on an enterprising joint venture of literary and visual authorship.
Together they produced a book, 'Ideas Have Legs', in which Andy Martin visually interprets the poetry and prose of Ian McMillan.
A mixture of the wry and the poignant rendered with media ranging from digital illustration, photography, found imagery and painting, all ingeniously edited into a coherent whole, beautifully designed and published by FUEL.
The evening will feature a live performance with McMillan reading his wry and poignant poetry accompanied by Martin's beautiful illustrations, followed up with an interview chaired by Adrian Shaughnessy.
Ian is a well known figure in British cultural life. He started performing on the live poetry circuit in the 1970s, has had several books published, appears regularly on television and radio and contributes articles to many newspapers and magazines. Andy was the Art Director at NME before leaving in 1985 to pursue an illustration career. He is a seasoned image-maker working across illustration and moving image. His regular contributions to major UK newspapers and magazines are instantly recognizable.
