Happy Halloween!
It's been a busy old week at GSHQ, what with the
@whiterabbitbks launch and all. But in case we hadn't enough to get on with we thoughT we'd bring you this spooky delight.
This amazing illustration of Andrew was created by
@runwrake in 1994 for the NME to illustrate the release of Haunted Dancehall by
@the.sabres.of.paradise .
I found a collage of it framed in Andrews studio after he passed, and with a little help from my friends, we tracked down the artist.
Sadly, like Andrew, Run left this earth way too young, and also like Andrew, left an incredible body of work. So, in honour of Andrew and Run we are proud to present this limited edition screen print, hand printed and numbered by our dear friends at
@ghost.editions which is rather apt for the time of year and the illustration itself.
Run worked at the NME for many years, illustrating the weekly releases for the likes of Blur, Bob Dylan, Flaming Lips, to name a few. His talents ranged from illustration, animation, video to short film. You will no doubt have come across him at some point during your musical education.
All profits from these sales will be split between Andrews and Runs estates and also Pilgrim Hospice who took great care of Run in his final months.
This will be a pre order run, orders closing 15th November.
A3 screen print on 315gsm paper.
Available exclusively from
All orders will be delivered in time for the Haunted Dancehall 22nd anniversary on 28th November, once the ink has dried.
Huge thanks to
@lisawrake for her great support and assistance in getting this off the ground.
