Mörel Books provides us a sneak preview of Ed Templeton’s newest booklet ‘Drinking the Kool-Aid’. Echoing a non-judgmental attitude to his environs with brushes, camera and text, Templeton presents a document of today’s youth culture. Preserved amongst the pages of ‘Drinking the Kool-Aid’ is the do-it-yourself ethos of the skate and punk culture from which Templeton hails. The book fuctions as a whole due to its seamless presentation of collage, illustration, painting and photography. Also noteworthy is the complete vision of Templeton’s experience as he has created, designed and edited the booklet himself.

Pre-orders will be formally released 6 April and copies can be purchased at the  Mörel Books website while available. In addition, make your way to the Elms Lester Gallery in London 8 April for the official book launch/ opening with artist and publisher. Also, be sure to attend the exclusive signing of ‘Drinking the Kool-Aid’ 10 April (12-2pm). The ‘Drinking the Kool-Aid’ exhibition will run 6 April to 17 April, also at Elms Lester Gallery.
