Graphic Poetry: A Wig-01 Project

Graphic Poetry is a book of modern poetry from contemporary writers around the world that places the poems within a visual context.

With its diverse mix of styles and ideas grpahic Poetry is a unique volume which will delight both the eye and the mind. Over fifty designers/illustrators have produced original artwork for Graphic Poetry including: Big Active, Blue Source, Marc Boutavant, Build, Delaware, Marion Deuchars, eboy, Fellow Designers, FL@33, Michael Gillette, Happypets, Angus hyland, Intro, Alan Kitching, non-Format, Phunk Studio, Powergraphixx, Rinzen, Tomato and Why Not Associates. The foreword is written by Paula Carson, deputy editor of international communication arts magazine "Creative Review."
