We’ve not heard much from Lubok Verlag in a while. When you’re in the business of producing handmade books fashioned entirely from linocut pages it’s understandable that getting a new publication out into the world takes a lot of time. Even so it feels like ages since Lubok 10 first landed. But don’t worry, they’ve just been in touch to announce that Lubok 11 is on its way, and you can expect the usual rich, inky goodness that these German print purists do so well. With 88 original linocuts from the likes of Christoph Ruckhäberle, Ewoud van Rijn and Koen Taselaar we guarantee this is going to be one hell of a beautiful publication – so best get those pre-orders in quick!

A black and white linocut illustration divided into four panels. Each panel depicts a different stylised, monstrous figure with sharp features and textured, organic forms.
