COLLECTOR PREVIEW CATALOG
JOHN KEATLEY
UNIFORM
UNIFORM, the first book published by Keatley, is an exploration of identity. In UNIFORM, Keatley takes the familiar green army toys and seeks to look beyond the labels of toy/war/soldier to see the humanity in each character. Keatley’s portraits are bold, simple, and full of imagination and emotion. Playing off their miniature counterparts, the characters in these images sit lower in the frame than typically seen in a portrait, amidst an excess of negative space, mimicking the small stature of the toy’s size. These portraits bring humanity to the iconic green figures in a beautiful and nostalgic way. Limited to 1500 books in a one-time only print run, UNIFORM includes 34 character portraits, in a hardcover clothbound 72-page book, with a beautiful embossed and foil-stamped cover.
