Very nice Joe, unfortunately I have too much of your work already (or so the mrs says).

Really lovely Joe.
I was admiring that top one on the website, just yesterday. Love it!.

He's preparing for the big move to Paris Wiz... the road trip commences tomorrow I think. Car, train, tunnel, car... then some pastis!

Haha nah, not buggering off, just moving to Paris for a bit of culture expansion! He's back for the Sun, Sea and Spray event and then who knows... pretty exciting for him I think.

C'est la vie monsieur Wiz Le Bong ;D

The Future Tense today announced the launch of an exclusive new print by
Joseph Loughborough via its FT Editions label.

Entitled "The Enemy" and based upon the charcoal sketch originally exhibited at The Future Tense group launch show in 2010, the work was developed in collaboration with world-renowned print studio, Thumbprint Editions. Thumbprint is best known for creating etchings and woodcuts with such artists as Damien Hirst, Anish Kapoor and Tracey Emin, including her most recent release ‘The Kiss’.

Measuring a generous 100 x 70 cm and limited to a signed edition of 50 + 3 artist proofs, the print uses a traditional Polymer Gravure etching process to fully capture the unique tonal variation typically found in charcoal works on paper. This complex, highly technical process produces prints of unrivalled quality, whilst also creating an attractive embossed frame within the paper due to the extreme pressures on the plate during the printing process.

Pete Kosowicz, master printer and founder of Thumbprint Editions said, “It’s always exciting to work with emerging artists, and Joe is an obvious talent. Charcoal has long been a challenge to replicate successfully in print, but this edition is a perfect example of what is now possible with the Polymer Gravure etching process.”

"The Enemy" will be available from www.thefuturetense.net/ from midday BST on Thursday June 16th.

Polymer Gravure Etching on Hand Torn Hahnemulle Paper
Dimensions: 70cm. x 100cm.

Here is a closer crop - the quality needs to be seen to be appreciated! Even from a few feet away, you'd swear it was original charcoal.

That's categorically 100% the print

Hugely takented artist, and a bloody nice fella to boot!

This is a great print..!! Would love the original but I fear it has been snapped up a long time ago...

what a beauty!

heard about joe doin this last month

Was speaking to Joe about the show yesterday and it sounds like it's going to be one not to be missed. Agreed on the location, perfect for his work, sounds like he'll need the space.
Refreshing these days for an artist not to rush into a solo show. Probably one of the most talented artists out there at the moment and one of the most overdue and eagerly anticipated solo shows.
