M is for Men

We're a bit late with this one, but you've still got just over a week to catch illustrator James Graham's little show M is for Men at House of Propellers. James does a lot of work for Esquire magazine, and this show features a selection of limited edition silkscreened and foil-blocked prints based on the illustrations he's done for the magazine. The foil-blocked prints (below) are especially tasty, and at £25 a pop, great value. You can also pick up a single colour print called M is for Men for a donation of just £1! Brilliant.
