Two limited edition prints of superb artwork by Austin Osman Spare are being made available for purchase: Mask and Effloration...

Presented by Strange Attractor Press in collaboration with artist and musician Ossian Brown, this Mask is one of a number created by Spare in the early 1930s, and shows off his own idiosyncratic take on the Art Deco style to fine effect.

Effloration is a large, stunning and vibrant magical pastel originally exhibited, as was customary for Spare, in two South London pubs – the Mansion House Tavern in 1952 and The White Bear in 1953.

Both (limited to 111 and 65 copies respectively) are Giclée prints presented on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper and produced to archival standards.

Their dimensions match those of the original artworks.

Each print is hand-numbered, blind-embossed with an ‘AOS’ signature, and comes with a certificate of provenance.

The pictures are from Ossian Brown’s collection and have been photographed by Alex Brattell.

Jerusalem Press invites you to join us to celebrate the launch of our latest title, Refractions.

This is the most abundantly illustrated book on Spare currently in print with over 200 colour and 100 B&W images.

Appropriately enough this will take place at the Cuming Museum, south London.

This is the follow up to Cockney Visionary, gathering up talks delivered during the exhibition and fully illustrating the list of works. It features fifteen authors including Gary Lachman, Michael Staley, William Wallace, and Caroline Wise.
