About Peculiarity Press
Peculiarity Press was started by artist and typographic designer Jane Glennie. The journey began with artist Robert Good and his project to create a 'New Dictionary of Art'. Meeting through the Cambridge festival 'Art, Language, Location', of which Robert is Director, and both working with art and words was a good fit for collaboration and the design process began.
Jane Glennie has been a designer for over 20 years, studying Typography & Graphic Communication at Reading University and setting up her own design agency. She has worked on a wide range of projects and clients, including books for The Storytelling Museum in Oxford and for publisher Sixth & Spring in New York. A desire to publish independently had been simmering, it was time to go for it.
A New Dictionary of Art is now stocked in galleries and bookshops across the UK. New books will be published in early 2019.
PP is happy to read ideas from artists that they think might make a good book.
