Soft cover. Zustand: New. Colour images. 47.pp. *** Everything and All of Us brings together drawings and prints by Mary Griffiths spanning the last ten years. It also includes a specially commissioned large-scale wall drawing and artworks selected by the artist from the University of Leeds' Cultural Collections. As Griffiths' first major institutional show, the exhibition foregrounds the artist's collaborative approach.

Selected from Halkyard's popular 'Pictures from a Library' and 'Archive Corner' features published in PN Review over the last two decades, these essays have been brought together for the first time and put into productive dialogue with each other.…
