Lawrence Zeegen talks his new book and his hopes for illustration

Lawrence Zeegen talks his new book and his hopes for illustration: Lawrence Zeegen has never been one to mince his words. The illustrator, writer and dean of design at London College of Communication has recently launched his new book _Fifty Years Of Illustration_ which he co-wrote with _Grafik_ editor Caroline Roberts. It’s an impressively ambitious undertaking with the duo condensing five decades into 1,000 images by 240 illustrators from 30 countries. Lawrence admits it’s a “pretty personal selection” but one that aims to “represent the movers and shakers across each decade according to the work I believe was instrumental in shaping the discipline.”
