A3 limited edition (20) 2 colour screen printed poster Pam Bowman as Dust Working in response to Robin Bray Hurren Reframing the Myth An exhibition by the Central Illustration Agency and Graeae Theatre Company celebrating 35 years of placing Deaf and disabled artists centre stage. The Central Illustration Agency (CIA) has been representing some of the world’s leading illustrators and animators for over thirty years. Graeae is a force for change in world-class theatre, breaking down barriers, challenging preconceptions and boldly placing Deaf and disabled artists centre stage. In February 2016, CIA and Graeae will be launching Reframing the Myth at The Guardian’s exhibition space in King’s Cross. CIA has partnered 40 of its illustrators with 40 of Graeae Theatre Company’s artists to explore their mutual creativity and produce artwork inspired by the experiences of the company’s actors, dancers, writers and directors. The exhibition will interpret the outstanding artistic achievements of the artists that have worked with Graeae over the last 35 years, while also highlighting the challenges that members of the Deaf and disabled community face due to the governments ongoing changes to the benefits system. CIA artist Sir Peter Blake, himself a patron of Graeae, will be producing an original artwork illustrating the Greek Myth that gave the theatre company its name - a story of resourcefulness. This artwork will also be animated by CIA animation house Dog & Rabbit. The exhibition will be fully accessible and will include audio description and braille. http://graeae.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/GRAEAE-PRESS-RELEASE-SP.pdf Contributors: Sir Peter Blake / Graeae myth artwork and animation by Dog & Rabbit, script by Sean Burn Sara Pope / Jenny Sealey Harriet Russell / Amy Bethan Evans Tobatron / Barbara Lisicki Brian Grimwood / Chris Pavia Tim Marrs / Daryl Beeton Anna Higgie / David Ellington Ulla Puggaard / David Toole Jackie Parsons / Dawn Langley Jakob Hinrichs / Garry Robson Sarah J Coleman / Jacqui Adeniji-Williams Max Ellis / Jamie Beddard Chris Gilvan-Cartwright / Jez Colborne Kate Miller / Jo Verrent Simon Spilsbury / John Kelly Clare Melinsky / Jodi Alissa Bickerton Sally Booth / Mel Stevens Jonny Wan / Milton Lopes Susan Burghart / Nadia Albina Rachel Gadsden / Nickie Wildin Kai & Sunny / Nicola Werenowska Julene Harrison / Rachel Gadsden Dust / Robin Bray Hurren Rose Blake / Rosaleen McDonagh Lesley Buckingham / Sarah Howard Mick Marston / Sean Burn Tatiana Boyko / Sophie Partridge Martin Haake / Stephen Collins Nishant Choksi / Stephen Bunce Richard Wilkinson / Ted Evans Kerry Hyndman / Tiiu Mortley David Holmes / Tom Wentworth Tony Heaton / Victoria Oruwari Mario Wagner / Viviane Macedo Edward McGowan / Amit Sharma Jonathan Gibbs / Nabil Shaban Jon Adams / Arthur Hughes Ray Smith / Omeima Mudawi Rowlings Paul Oakley / Lizzie Emeh
