Conceived in 2016, Colour Space serves as a response to the iconic Spot Painting series that followed the original work. Where the Spot Paintings were painstakingly rigorous in their formulaic grid structure, intended to look as if they had been made ‘by a person trying to paint like a machine’, the Colour Space series is looser, more painterly, featuring informal drips and splashes of paint. In both series, however, no two colours repeat within a single canvas. The new finite series comprises over 260 works, all household gloss paint on canvas. The series is subcategorised by spot size: 6 mm, Spring 2019 10 mm, 25 mm, 50 mm, 75 mm and 100 mm, with a selection 978-1-9121220-6-6 of paintings on a black background. Each painting is fully £75.00 / $100.00 / €85.00 illustrated in the book, alongside artwork details.

Illustrations 11 Fireflies Philippe Parreno Generally known for his installation work encompassing sculpture, video and soundscapes, Fireflies focuses wholly on Parreno’s lesser-known drawings. The drawings collected here showcase a delicate, personal touch, as they were created while Parreno was ill with cancer and were sent to his friends. In Parreno’s drawings the fireflies’ light is often created by an absence of darkness or pigment. This striking contrast perfectly encapsulates the bioluminescent glow emanating from the insect’s abdomen. The book is edited by Hans Ulrich Obrist, artistic director of Serpentine Galleries.
