Underground Graphics celebrates the psychedelic visual revolution of Britain’s underground press in the 1960s and 1970s. A landmark survey of British underground press graphics and counterculture design, it brings together extraordinary posters, illustrations and graphic work from publications including OZ Magazine, International Times, and Gandalf’s Garden.
Featuring groundbreaking work by Nigel Waymouth and Michael English, John Hurford, Martin Sharp, and Mal Dean, the book captures the radical intersection of graphic design, music, publishing and counterculture.
First published by Academy Editions in 1970, Underground Graphics returns as a special anniversary edition, printed on coloured, textured stock inspired by the original sugar-paper pages.
