Caricaturists are the anarchists of the visual arts.
Growing up in the Fens of East Anglia, once famed as the grim hiding place for metropolitan outlaws and runaway slaves, Roger Law always felt the need for a good laugh.
Fortunately for us all he would find it. Most obviously by becoming the evil genius behind Spitting Image, the award-winning TV show featuring caricature puppets that convulsed the nation for decades, and in revised form, now on YouTube.
With this book, Law tells the background story of how to prompt as well as experience mirth. All this with brilliant illustrations designed to get his totally irreverent social and political messages across.
Much of the text draws on Law's own long life as a caricaturist, but it is also well supplemented by insights into the work of the great exponents of the art of anarchy, both past and present. This makes Law and Disorder a rich mine for any young caricaturists setting out with disorderly intentions today. As for the rest of us, it's simply magnificent entertainment.
