Curated and edited by designer, author and local legend @officeofcraig , In Loving Memory of Work tells the story of the UK Miners’ Strike 1984-85 through a record of the visual culture of the working class affected during this pivotal period. Photographs, posters, badges, banners and more are presented here alongside contemporary commentary that creates both a fascinating document of a specific historical period, as well as an exploration of dissent more broadly, and the vital role visual material can play in the radical, even revolutionary, moment. Originally published in 2015, this revised and updated @roughtradebooks edition features a raft of brand-new material to mark the upcoming 40th anniversary of the dispute, celebrating the breadth of working class creativity while simultaneously paying homage to a devastated community. Available online and in-store, link is in our bio! Grab one while you can 👀 #craigoldham #inlovingmemoryofwork #roughtradebooks #kenloach #minerstrike #thewhitworthshop #thewhitworth
Pretty Broad Tastes - Leslie Winer, Linder & Christopher Shannon from @roughtradebooks Pretty Broad Tastes is a fabulous object of intrigue, with the first full collection of poems from the seminal artist and writer Leslie Winer. Now in stock & available at all wonderful book places! A literary and visual trialogue between Winer, Christopher Shannon and Linder after a decade of varied collaborative projects across the worlds of design, music, art and performance, Pretty Broad Tastes marks the latest embarkation point on Leslie Winer's wholly original artistic odyssey through both the mainstream and counter-cultural landscape of the past half a century. As befits a boundless artistic imagination, and an instinct that has consistently anticipated the zeitgeist while exhibiting the bravery of the avant-garde, these poems are fractured, amorphous linguistic experiments in code-making and codebreaking, yielding emotional truths and a visceral physicality through a definitively modern modernist project. Presented here alongside a pamphlet of photomontages by the artist Linder, and a series of images collected by Christopher Shannon, augmented by annotations in Winer's handwriting. Together, these pamphlets create a single work - and object of intrigue, open-hearted and available to a multitudinous readership's discreet and varied interpretations. Touching on the images and imagery of the artists' combined obsessions, their cultural environments, their shared and separate histories and memory, this is a genuinely unique, enigmatic, and genre-defying work of art. Held together in a specially designed folder containing the three pamphlets by the individual artists, this 'object of intrigue' also contains a foldout of poetry by Leslie Winer, a "PrettyBroad Tastes" flexidisc featuring vocals by Leslie Winer & music by Maxwell Sterling, a postcard by Linder and a matchbook. kindly supported by @agnesb_officiel @lindersterling @christopher_shannon @officeofcraig #lesliewiner #lindersterling #christophershannon #roughtradebooks #agnèsb #craigoldham #officeofcraig #prettybroadtastes #artdatalondon

Craig Oldham is one of the U.K.’s most influential graphic designers. Founder of Manchester-based practice Office of Craig, he is also Creative Director of Rough Trade Books | His own publication, In Loving Memory of Work, is a celebrated visual documentation of the U.K. miners’ strikes from 1984-1985. The award-winning book is [in Craig’s words] “About the collective creativity of working class people.” | Craig was part of Panel 02 at the @concretecommunities launch event on 10 May 2023 | We asked for Craig’s thoughts post event and he said, “Concrete Communities felt almost exactly that - a community. A coming together not only of like minds but debating our oppositions and our disagreements to find hope. Community is a word thrown around a lot these days, so being part of something like CC where it’s genuine - in both panel and audience - is unique and important. We can all get something from that.” | Portrait taken by Park Hill resident @sam.binstead Event 002 is already in planning | New website now live | Sign up to the newsletter for further details | Link in bio | @officeofcraig #community #concrete #event #architecture #parkhill #audience #design #society #graphicdesign #books #industry #craigoldham

'Key Workers Poster' by Craig Oldham (ink on paper). In February 2020 Home Secretary Priti Patel said that everyone who earned under £25,000 a year was "low-skilled" but then, just one month later, when England went into Lockdown due to COVID-19 they became known as KEY-WORKERS. #artist #covid_19 #bookmarkquinn #writer #keyworkers #nhsheroes #pritipatel #craigoldham #lockdown #manchesterartgallery #manchester

Something for your eyes: 👀 Craig Oldham's typographic Key Workers poster at @mcrartgallery. Spotted on our recent visit! In 2020, the UK Government categorised those who earned less than £25,000 as "low skilled". Yet, COVID-19 saw these same individuals celebrated as "key workers". Craig Oldham's artwork (made up of many "low skilled" job titles) is a reminder of everyone who is servicing the country. They deserved our respect, support and celebration. ⭐️ #KeyWorkers #TypeHype #CraigOldham #Manchester
Sometimes I go on Kickstarter and back random books, as I did with this. The Shining (A Visual and Cultural Hauntings) by Craig Oldham and published by @roughtradebooks The box lid is printed with the iconic Jack Nicholson with the inside being flocked with a designed replicating the carpet from room 237 Single sided typewriter produced sheets using the same model typewriter used in the film, including 16 ‘All work and no play’, 10 character portraits, and 80 essays. 9 contributors booklets discussing parts of the film, 3 art booklets, and a scrapbook featuring imagines that influenced the Overlook design. This edition is signed by the editor Craig Oldham. It’s also meant to include a numbered sheet, as there are only 237 copies, however, they forgot to include this, and it’s being sent mid-November. #shining #theshining #stephenking #roughtradebooks #craigoldham #horrorbooks #moviebooks #signedbooks #signedbook #fantasybooks #fantasy #fantasybook #Books #specialeditionbooks #specialedition #moviebook

From the Manchester Art Gallery, the 'Key Workers' poster by designer Craig Oldham. It makes the point that the very people being celebrated as 'key workers' during the pandemic were often in the same jobs derided as 'low-skilled' by Priti Patel when she banned everyone earning under £25k entering the country. #manchester #keyworkers #lowskilled #craigoldham #design #art #artgallery #manchesterartgallery #protestart #artist #protest #eatwellmcr #offiiceofcraig

He works with @roughtradebooks and @commonpractices. Scroll on for the big reveal or read more below... #seesawspace #seesawcommunity #seesawmember Photo by @_ivan_jones __________________ Posted @withregram • @officeofcraig Nice end to the day to see the Key Workers poster installed at @mcrartgallery. Here’s some pictures of me trying to make light of what is, for me personally, a pretty humbling and proud moment. Also with @jonhatton whom helped make the poster what it is (and @timothydonaldson.esq there in spirit, his typeface Proletariat given a prominent outing and @_alicefraser loitering in the gallery somewhere). Quite an amazing ride this poster continues to have, but of utmost importance it is still feeding people in food poverty, vulnerable situations, those working on the frontline, and those experiencing homelessness, so follow the link in the bio to support this by buying a print, or pick one up in the @manchesterartgalleryco shop when you visit. . . . #keyworkers #work #workworkwork #frontline #nhs #savethenhs #poster #design #typography #posterart #manchester #manchesterart #typefacedesign #print #installation #toriesout #immigration #craigoldham #officeofcraigoldham

REGISTRATION FOR FRIDAY'S @CM_SHEFFIELD EVENT IS NOW OPEN! With this months theme being RADICAL, we’re not surprised that @cm_sheffield asked Craig Oldham, one of the UK’s most influential designers and Associate Lecturer in Visual Communication with us to speak at Friday’s CM Sheffield event. Craig is more than a designer, he is a tea guzzling, profanity favouring, Designer, Educator, Writer, Publisher, Campaigner, Website-Up-Putter, and Yorkshireman. He is the brains behind Manchester-based creative studio, @officeofcraig and publishing house Common Practices + creative director for @roughtradebooks and helps shape and nurture the designers of the future here in the Department. Want to know more about Craig? @creativeboommag interviewed him for their podcast earlier this year and chatted about the state of the creative industries, favourite movies, and where he gets his no-nonsense attitude from. Search for @creativeboommag episode 19 from May 11th 2020 via your usual streaming service.

Just made a three-part video series of talks for @shu_graphics delving into why I—to borrow and bludgeon @emmalwarren1’s words—document my culture. Growing up in a post-industrial mining town and how working class principles and politics have influenced and informed what I do now. Dedicated two of the talks going in-depth on making my book In Loving Memory of Work: A Visual Record of the UK Miners’ Strike 1984-85 deeper than I think I ever have before including the research process, making typography, printing with coal, and designing for a community. Enjoyed it. Anyone want a third edition?! . . . #inlovingmemoryofwork #minersstrike #graphicdesign #yorkshire #barnsley #sheffield #bookdesign #books #typography #protest #graphics #solidarity #pits #pitsandperverts #politics #politicalgraphics #craigoldham #teaching #durhamminersgala
