'Berlin 2014-2016': instant portraits by Twoone
- Aug 23, 2016
Urban Spree and Twoone release a limited edition 3-colour risograph book.
Designed during his Residency at Urban Spree in July 2016, the 60-page risograph book 'Berlin 2014-2016' is the result of 2 years of intense portrait sketches by the Japanese artist in the german capital. Quickly executed in U-Bahn and S-Bahn, on street corners, in bars and parks, the fast portraits of Twoone capture a vivid reality of the Berlin life.
The choice of risograph printing was made for its capacity to reproduce the colors and texture of the original drawings. 3 colors, i.e. 3 layers have been printed sequentially.
The project was made possible owing to the printing skills of Drucken 3000 in Berlin and Kelly Jewell's book design skills.
The book comes as a limited edition of 200 hand-numbered and signed copies and is available in the Urban Spree bookshop in Berlin and online here.
