Tablets
What are Tablets?
Tablets are a completely new kind of exclusive, limited edition, freestanding collectible. Each one is a miniaturized three dimensional artwork, small enough to fit in the palm of a hand. Tablets do not require framing and so are ready to display straight out of the box. They sit perfectly on desks, bookcases, shelves, and cabinets; in fact, they look good anywhere. Tablets make ideal gifts and souvenirs.
Tablets feature iconic images from the world of photography, art and design. The founding philosophy behind Tablet Editions is that each and every Tablet must represent the very best work from any given artist’s archives. Over time, the body of work released in Tablet format will grow into a substantial series of carefully curated limited edition collectibles, enabling you to build a beautiful art collection without major constraints on your wallspace or your back pocket.
The First Wave
The inaugural releases from Tablet Editions feature four important photographs from the archives of British photographer Simon Larbalestier, the man who made the photographs that appeared on the sleeves of all the albums released by cult US band the Pixies in the late eighties/early nineties. Produced in finite and exclusive worldwide limited editions, Simon Larbalestier's Tablets are supplied with a hand-signed, individually numbered certificate of authenticity, which opens out to reveal Simon Larbalestier’s detailed personal recollections of the story behind each classic image, and features rare session image(s) to accompany Simon's text.
