TALKING SHOP .................................... The Family Store Andrew Garnett, owner What do you sell? Pins, patches, t-shirts, comics, small-press books, zines - and there’s a gallery space we’ve just opened upstairs. We’re actively trying to make it a space that is affordable, essentially, and accessible, because illustration is a very broad beast and I think (in the nicest way) we work at the bottom end of it. I never want to sell anything that’s super expensive up there; I’m not interested in that side of things. If something’s affordable I don’t think it has any less value; a £3 zine has got as much heart and soul as a £1,500 Pure Evil print, as far as I’m concerned. What got you interested in illustration? I don’t really know, I just always was. The Spiderman Annual 1984 - that’s probably what. Are you an illustrator yourself? I work with illustrators, but I am utterly talentless within that realm; I can’t draw for toffee. I suppose people like me are required because… I’m not saying that illustrators don’t get things done, they absolutely do, but sometimes people who can’t do that, they’re driven in a separate way. Obviously I want to run a business and that is key, but it’s all done out of the love of it. At the end of the day, I’m a massive nerd for that sort of stuff. How much of what you sell is by local illustrators? Quite a bit, but we don’t really do that thing of pointing it out. I just think that that almost colloquialises it, saying, ‘oh, look at quaint little Brighton’. We want to put local work at an equal footing with everything else. And you’re behind the Brighton Illustration Fair? It’s me and three other people, but it’s kind of my brainchild. We thought about doing it during the Festival again this year but there’s so much else going on that we decided to move it to October instead. David Shrigley is going to be a guest, and we’ve got Tuesday Bassen, and Jordy van den Nieuwendijk, and Lucy Sherston, who’s a Brighton illustrator. This year we’re ramping up the involvement of the students, so there’s going to be a dedicated space for them, too. Interview by Rebecca Cunningham familystoreuk.com ....79....
