Call For Proposals

From Four Corners Books, makers of Four Corners Familiars:

We are seeking proposals from artists, at any stage in their careers, for a volume in the Four Corners Familiars series. The series presents artists’ responses to classic novels and short stories and participants are encouraged to come up with innovative, distinctive ways of complementing the text, far removed from traditional notions of illustration.

Artists need not be represented by galleries, and proposals are welcome from all sections of society, from which we will publish the selected project in 2010.

Three Familiars have already been published, The Picture Of Dorian Gray, Dracula and Blumfeld, An Elderly Bachelor. Two more will appear in 2009: NAU SEA SEA SICK, a collection of sea stories selected and illustrated by Kay Rosen and A Stick Of Green Candy, short stories by Denton Welch and Jane Bowles, selected and illustrated by Colter Jacobsen.

Proposals should be received no later than 10th April 2009. A final decision will be made no later than 25th May 2009.
