The Scottish artist, poet and gardener Ian Hamilton Finlay died a few days ago. Over the years, he worked very closely with a number of lettering artists, calligraphers, stone carvers and even neon makers to realise his visions. At the ATypI conference in Copenhagen in 2002, Michael Harvey gave a delightful presentation showing the fruits of many years of collaboration with the often difficult and combatative Finlay.
I’ll try to find some time over the next couple of days to upload a few images of Finlay’s work.
