(Preface) 'The T-shirt has been used as a medium for provocative, entertaining or nonsensical graphics and messages since the 1960s. This book celebrates designers who continue to use it as a vehicle for their art. 200% Cotton features work by a disparate group of independent and uncompromising designers, and presents an inspiring snapshot of the current state of global creativity.
Divided into five chapters, 200% Cotton includes designs created for brands, clients, clothing labels and as self-promotional items (Sell alongside T-shirts designed by those who have started their own formal T-shirt-related sidelines (Buy). It shows photography of T-shirt-wearing strangers in cities from Cardiff to Sydney (Shoot) and offers a glimpse into the strange but entertaining world of obsessive T-shirt collectors and fans (Love).
Also included are T-shirt graphics designed especially for the book around the brief of '200%'. Featuring work by a range of international designers, from the well known (including Deanne Cheuk, Shynola, Neasden Control Centre, Mode 2, Scott King, howies, alife, Uniform and Green Lady) to younger, less established artists, the book will appeal to art directors, illustrators and creatives as well as anyone who has ever worn a T-shirt.'
