Super Plant
Super Plant [1995]
Fred Tomaselli
"I want people to get lost in the work. I want to seduce people into it and I want people to escape inside the world of the work. In that way the work is pre-Modernist. I throw all of my obsessions and loves into the work, and I try not to be too embarrassed about any of it. I love nature, I love gardening, I love watching birds, and all of that gets into the work. I just try to be true to who I am and make the work I want to see. I don’t have a radical agenda."
Just one of our new single, blank notecards available now. For a catalogue contact us:

The Awdrey-Gore Legacy
What do these have in common?
1. St Spasmus' Day
2. A Nameless poacher
3. A guilt ballroom chair
4. Suthick & Upters Auction Rooms ...
....they are all featured in the Introductionary Notes of the Awdrey Gore Legacy by Edward Gorey, a shiny new book from Pomegranate
"The smallest clue may be [or not] the one to give away the plot'
the Ipsiad, can 1
Miss D. Awdrey-Gore, renowned 97-year-old writer of detective stories, is found murdered; then a mysterious hidden packet is discovered. Addressed to her publisher, it contains what appear to be notes and drawings related to a literary work in progress. The contents “in their entirety—though certain things are patently missing” comprise clues about the who, what, when, where, and how of Awdrey-Gore’s demise. Or do they? Edward Gorey takes us on a rollicking ride in this merry murder mystery, but whether or not the killer is revealed is open to speculation.
Like his fictional dame novelist, Gorey (1925–2000) was a prolific author. Creator of more than one hundred works, he was also an artist, playwright, award-winning set and costume designer, and creator of the animated introduction to the PBS series Mystery! First published in 1972, The Awdrey-Gore Legacy remains one of Gorey’s most treasured tales, satisfying the sleuth in each of us.
64 pages with more than 50 colour and black-and-white Gorey drawings.
Size: 8 1/2 x 6".
Hardcover smyth-sewn casebound book, with jacket.
ISBN 978-0-7649-5509-9.

Rhys Road Test's the big book of Pheremone
8 year old Rhys Hayden road tests Pomegranate's big hardback book Pheromone!
He may only be 8 but Rhys knows a thing or 80 about insects and so we sat him down and asked him to road test our Pheromone book. At first he was a little quiet but his face was full of wonder and surprise at the beautiful page layouts of Christopher Marley's jaw dropping work. Then the ooh's and aghhh's came on strong, Rhys was sold and gave it 10 out of 10, the thumbs up we wanted AND, just to let you know, that Road Test Rhys already knew some of the technical names for the insects which really impressed us at Pom.
Thanks Rhys.
This book presents the compositions of Christopher Marley: assemblages of real insect bodies that display brilliant colour and otherworldly form. The colours are entirely natural, and to render the reproductions as accurate as possible some have been reproduced with fifth-colour metallic inks and highlighted with spot varnish.
Accompanying the broad sample of Marley’s work is a series of essays by the artist: “Design of Insects,” “Insects in Design,” “History,” “Color,” “The Coleoptera Mosaics: An Exercise in Color,” “Repetition,” “Structure,” “Texture,” “Variations,” “Botanicals,” “Size,” and “Environmental Effects.”
Christopher Marley was born in Covina, California, and grew up near Salem, Oregon. At 19 years old, he began his travels while serving as a missionary for two years in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. Upon his return, he balanced studying design at Brigham Young University with extended sabbaticals to work both on and off camera for scores of fashion brands such as Donna Karan, Gucci, and Giorgio Armani. Over more than a decade, his assignments to dozens of countries in Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas spawned a passionate drive to share the unending variety of surprising natural artifacts with an unsuspecting public through his artwork. In addition to insects, his mediums of design include fossils, minerals, botanicals, bones, and sea life. His work has been featured in numerous magazines and is sold through hundreds of galleries, stores, and showrooms in the United States and abroad.
256 pages, with more than 170 colour photographs and indexes of artworks and specimens, both by common and scientific names.
Smyth-sewn casebound book with jacket.
Size: 9 1/4 x 12 in.
ISBN 978-0-7649-4619-6.
£39.95
