Ikon Ikon Arefin & Arefin: The Graphic Design Of Tony Arefin

This catalogue was the first to measure the full impact of Tony Arefin's career and accompanied his 2012 exhibition The graphic design of Tony Arefin.

Tony Arefin (1962–2000), was a graphic designer who emerged during the late 1980s as one of the most important figures in the British art world. With catalogues for Serpentine, ICA, Chisenhale Gallery and Ikon, Arefin had achieved such art world dominance by the early 1990s that design critic Rick Poynor described him as ‘single-handedly processing the print needs of the entire British art scene’.

Includes an essay by Emily King and an in-conversation piece with James Langdon, Rick Poynor and Jonathan Watkins.
