Beppe Giacobbe is a Milanese illustrator, born in 1953. He studied at the Brera Academy and at the School of Visual Arts in New York, and has spent the years since drawing for Corr iere della Sera and for publishing houses in Italy and abroad. He taught for twenty-four years, at IED Milan and ISIA Urbino. In 2024 the shop's own imprint, Edizioni Bonvini 1909, published Distrazioni - a book of his unpublished work and editorial drawings. This notebook stands in the same line. The cover of this notebook - front and back - is his. It is called Deadalus' Labyrinth, and it belongs to Bonvini's Quaderni d'Autore: a series of notebooks made with artists who work alongside the historic Milan stationery shop on its broader cultural programme of exhibitions, residencies and publications. The spine is Singer-stitched — the visible machine-sewn seam that holds the signatures and lets the book lie flat. The paper inside is made in Italy from post-consumer recycled stock, blank, for whatever the owner needs to put there. Exclusive to Australia. Show more
