[grits at altern.org]

SOME MILD PERIL is a new book assembled & edited by Nick Jordan, featuring the work of 27 contemporary artists, from the UK and Ireland. 

Encompassing new and recent work in drawing, text and photography, the book presents themes of dark humour, folk-tales, sinister charm, cinema, and comic-book/cartoon iconography. Selected artists have been invited to submit work in response to 'some mild peril', or a 'sense of foreboding'.

Contributing artists: David Alker, Mark Beasley & Mark Titchner, Dave Beech, Andrew, Daniel & Jacob Cartwright, Paul Cordwell, Nick Crowe, Joe Devlin, Blaise Drummond, Oona Grimes, Rachel Goodyear, Cathy Lomax, Peter Liversidge, David Mackintosh, Andrew McDonald, Jim Medway, Zoe Mendelson, David Osbaldeston, Alex Pollard & Iain Hetherington, Ian Rawlinson, David Shrigley, Kate Scrivener and Sarah Woodfine.

The title, Some Mild Peril, is derived from the British Board of Film Classification's current 'advice to consumers'.
