Growing Up: The Young British Artists at 50

The cakies

This week I was at the book launch of "Growing Up: The Young British Artists at 50", to support a friend of mine, Ali Glitlow, who edited it. I was going to bring flowers but figured why not bake some funfetti cupcakes to celebrate the occasion (my friend is American so it seemed like the perfect flavour).

The book

The book is an honest account of five British artists; Anya Gallaccio, Damien Hirst, Gary Hume, Michale Landy and Sarah Lucas, and their journey over the last 25 years. It has tons of unreleased photos and personal interviews and is a great read. I bagged myself a copy and was lucky to get it signed not once but twice by the author, Jeremy Cooper, (cause I'm special like that :)).

If you're into that sort of thing and even if you're not, definitely grab yourself a copy :)

Peace & Love
