Good news during the holiday season – the very first book from Éditions Peinture <SAEIO 2009-2014> is finally out!
If you are new to Éditions Peinture, Saeio or <SAEIO 2009-2014>, here’s the back story. About two years ago, Mathieu Julien and Guillaume Pellay, two good friends who share a great passion for art and graffiti, came up with an idea of making a series of books which archive the works of unconventional graffiti writers. This led them to form a none-profit publishing company called Éditions Peinture. After selecting their first graffiti writer, Saeio, whose work I also greatly admire, and spending many months preparing, they successfully crowd funded last May to raise funds and to pre-sale the book.
So fast forward to now, the book is here! It is a 300-plus-page-book which thoroughly archives Saeio’s work from 2009 to 2014 with an interview in the back (both in English and French). It also comes with an essay written by Joëlle Le Saux. The book is beautifully made with a minimal layout, a cover which folds out to a poster and a transparent binding which I love very much.
The book can be ordered through their webshop, which also sells posters and fanzines by Gsulf, Akbar and Saeio (which I blogged the making-of several months ago). If you are still in search for a belated Christmas present, this might be a good place to look ; )

Mathieu Julien (my man whom you may know as Mattie) and Guillaume Pellay (my good friend) are artists who share a big passion for graffiti. Therefore, they started up a non-profit publishing company, Éditions Peinture, to publish books and essays which explore graffiti as paintings.
One big series they are brewing up is the “Archives” collection, which each book documents the years work of one graffiti writer along with an interview. The first book of the series archives the work of SAEIO from 2009 to 2014. Saeio (PAL crew) is one of the most original and interesting graffiti writes of now.
Éditions Peinture has been working on this book for a year, and they just launched the crowdfunding site to make this book a reality. You could pre-order the book, buy Saeio’s fanzine, poster, silkscreen, drawings to support them.
Please check it out, support and share with your friends :)

Mattie and GuiGui from Moderne Jazz crew are preparing to start up a nonprofit publishing house called Editions Peinture. They will publish books which rethink graffitis as paintings. Their first big book will be about Saeio’s works. He is a graffiti writer with an unusual style which I admire.
Mattie and GuiGui are now busy preparing posters, fanzines, prints and more for the fundraising event, which will launch in a couple of weeks.
The other day, Saeio came by to work on the fanzine which will be given to those kind donators : ) They are printed using a spirit duplicator, the same printing method I used to print these.
Here are some work in progress photos.
