Join us for a special evening with internationally acclaimed graphic artist Anthony Burrill.

Anthony Burrill is renowned for his ability to distill ideas into simple yet striking forms. Combining analogue craft with bold, optimistic messages, his work communicates with clarity and impact. Burrill frequently collaborates with forward-thinking practitioners across music, architecture, curation, education, and beyond, extending the possibilities of his chosen medium, letterpress printing, into new and ambitious directions. At the heart of his practice lies a belief in the power of words, gentle humour, and straightforward communication. His distinctive style is shaped by an enduring passion for creativity without boundaries, a commitment to simplicity, and a natural curiosity about people and the world around him.

n the lead-up to Design Week, Burrill will spend time at the National Print Museum exploring the collection and collaborating with our printers to create a new letterpress print – produced on the Museum’s historic presses. The unique print will be exhibited onsite and available for sale in both limited and open editions. The partnership celebrates the enduring power of print as a medium for creativity, communication, and social impact.

To launch the collaboration, Burrill will return to the Museum for a Q&A-style talk during Design Week, followed by live printing demonstrations and refreshments. Don’t miss this chance to hear directly from one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary design and engage in dialogue around design, heritage, and craft.
