Voices in Longitude and Latitude a video installation by Marnina & Noam Gonick 2014 (exhibition catalogue, MSVU Art Gallery) Design: Robert Tombs Studio.
3 Dec 2015 – 21 Feb 2016

Operating within the tradition of the artist/typographer/designer, Robert Tombs' practice incorporates print, photography and site-specific installation. The body of graphic work presented in this exhibition represents Tombs’ collaborations with numerous artists, writers, artist-run centres, art galleries, academic presses and printers to create books and artist-related publications. Viewed collectively, the printed matter emerging from these partnerships provides a survey not only of Tombs’ design work but also his clients’ projects and publications over the last thirty years.

The exhibition catalogue, designed by Tombs and featuring critical essays by Michael Davidge and Marina Roy, functions as the latest contribution to Robert Tombs: Index. Graphic Works 1985–2015.

Artist Talk Saturday 6 February at 2pm
Robert Tombs will offer an illustrated talk about his different design approaches when working on projects for MSVU Art Gallery, Owens Art Gallery, Cornell University Press and independent artist publishers.
