Escif's book, which he crowdfunded earlier this year, has just landed on my doorstep and it's an absolute beauty. Loads of drawings, source material, background information and walls both big and small; there's also a nice little poster. The book is available to buy from his website for those who missed out on the crowdfunding:

Escif currently has an exhibition on at the PERMM Museum of Contemporary Art in Russia entitled ' Greetings From Molotov'. There are some photos up on his website and, although I've posted a few below, there's a bunch more here. And also, I thought it was worth sharing this .gif which he's posted that references the ongoing refugee crisis:

I really like Escif but sometimes I don't understand the choice for his editions.

I really like Escif but sometimes I don't understand the choice for his editions.
Feel the same. I appreciate his creativity, but would I really put an apple with a gun collection on my walls? Unless it goes with a theme (ironic fruit?) it's a pass for me. It's fun to look at, but not something i'm eager to own.

You are right, his murals are strange nowadays as well. At least I don't understand them. But I think this print is a funny one which makes you think. Fruit with guns? What or who does the apple want to shoot and why? I might be totally wrong with my interpretation, but I see it like nature needs to heavily defend itsself against humans before it's too late.

ESCIF book Kickstarter ´The foundations of Harmony and Invention´/ "Los cimientos de la armonía y de la invención" The Foundations of Harmony and Invention 'A 600-page book that brings together some of the work I have done in the last 10 years.' / Escif A book that brings together paintings, stories, walls, journeys, encounters, anecdotes, experiences, reflections and contradictions. A cross-cutting story, full of gentle and inoffensive pages. An encyclopaedic archive of images, poetry and resistance. A printed statement that could well materialise, beyond its content, with the versatility of its container. So, this book, in a rectangular shape and hard cover, could well serve as a wedge with which to block the revolving doors of the Central Bank; as a companion for pleasure and adventures; as a small step to lean on to jump over a fence; as a cushion to sleep under a tree; as a throwing-object directed against a shop window; and also—why not—as a book, claiming pause, silence and timelessness against the dominant paradigm of productivity.
