The Morgan Gaynin Weekly Roundup
There are lots of exciting tidbits to share at MGI, so we hope that you’ll excuse our use of the ’roundup’ format – but surely this is a nice problem to have.
Anson Liaw’s conceptual illustrations have been featured in InPrint Magazine this month, featured alongside a short article about the artist and his distinctive views on the role of good illustration. You can take a peek at this terrific collection of Anson’s work here.
But that’s not all! Anson has also learned that his piece, entitled “Help Japan,” has been selected for the “Project Sunshine for Japan” poster design show. Also destined for publication, the 100 pieces will be on display in Dusseldorf, Germany, December 1st.
“Help Japan,” by Anson Liaw:
Lisa Adams’s whimsical character designs for the children’s picture book series “The Adventures of Wil and T,” written by CJ Connolly, has been named among the best in family-friendly media, products, and services by the “Mom’s Choice Awards”. Congratulations, Lisa! Beginning with “Wil, Fitz, and a Flea Named T,” the series has gone on to publish 5 charming titles.

And last but certainly not least, we were delighted to see these wonderful skin designs from Judith Drews. Created with ‘Paste’ in Argentina, the simple designs lend so much sweetness to some of our most commonly used gadgets.

Anson Liaw Contributes to Exhibition at SVA
Anson Liaw’s articulate imagery is capable of communicating multiple complex ideas simultaneously, and his recent contribution to the exhibition “Where Is My Vote? Posters for the Green Movement in Iran” proves to be a fantastic example:
This compelling collection of imagery will be on display at SVA until September 25th, with a reception being held tomorrow, September 16th, from 6 to 8 pm. Please come out and support Anson, as well as other artists, that are proud to unite in support of the people of Iran.

Anson Liaw Goes Green
This September, the School of Visual Arts here in New York will hold an important exhibition entitled “Where is My Vote: Posters for the Green Movement in Iran”. Organized by Steven Heller, Woody Pirtle, Anita Kunz, and Francis Di Tommaso, the event will feature over 150 posters from various artists that answered the Iranian Artist “Green Bird’s” call to create imagery in support of the Green Movement in Iran.
And who should be featured, but our very own Anson Liaw! You can see his piece, along with the others, here at SocialDesignZine.
