For his forthcoming show at the Haunch of Venison gallery in London, artist Jamie Shovlin has reimagined 17 covers for titles from the Fontana Modern Masters series (1970–84) which were scheduled to appear but never did…

Fontana Modern Masters was a series of pocket guides on writers, philosophers and cultural theorists whose ideas had helped to form the intellectual landscape of the 20th century. The first five titles came out in 1970, published by Fontana Books, the paperback imprint of William Collins & Co. The series editor was the academic and critic, Frank Kermode.
