Art Is Magic – Jeremy Deller
*Cheerio*
In Art is Magic, Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller brings together for the first time key works from his career alongside the art, pop music, film, politics and history that have inspired him.
Pulling together all Deller’s cultural touchstones – from acid house and brass bands to crop circles and folk traditions – and featuring conversations between the artist and an eclectic mix of cultural figures and collaborators, from fashion provocateur Sportsbanger to classicist Mary Beard. Art is Magic offers an unpredictable and exhilarating tour of a unique mind.

Flowers At Your Feet – Rahill
*Big Dada*
Based in upstate New York, Rahill Jamalifard is a multidisciplinary artist working within numerous overlapping music-poetic traditions. Her creative practice includes songwriting, as well as portraiture, DJing (both radio and live), and a more private pursuit of literature.
Informed by her upbringing in a diasporic Iranian American household, as well as her lifelong, genre-spanning musical explorations, Rahill’s forthcoming solo releases constitute, at once, a natural progression of – and departure from – her work with the seminal NYC psych rock outfit, Habibi, which she co-founded in the early 2010s.
Rahill’s songs occupy a familiar, contemplative mode – blending jazz,trip-hop / hip-hop and folk traditions spanning East and West.
LP – Olive Green Vinyl

Assembled lyrics by the excellent wordsmith and good egg, Simon Armitage.
