Plainspoke recently completed two book design projects. “Armed Chair” catalogues nearly 250 drawings of a stripped down antique armchair by Boston artist William Flynn that map the evolution of his thinking about the war in Iraq over more than two years. “Impressions of Tribal Life,” published by Eastman Kodak Company, presents an archival collection of Native American photographs along with excerpts from several scholarly essays. The book was published to support the Center for Western Studies in South Dakota, and to showcase the quality of Kodak’s NexPress digital printing technology.
