Jerusalem Press was founded in July 2007, publishing the work of artists and writers in limited edition books and fine print editions of the highest quality. So far, our fixation has remained firmly upon Austin Osman Spare and Frederick Carter, with more titles in progress…
The inaugural publication was Cockney Visionary, the Austin Osman Spare the catalogue accompanying the Fallen Visionary retrospective (with exclusive documentary DVD). A lavish presentation. Click image for purchase details…
This was followed by the publication of that classic of Edwardian mysticism, The Book of Pleasure, realised in a newly typeset format, replete with essays from Alan Moore and Michael Staley. The deluxe soon sold out and the standard edition remains our bestseller. We published an expanded edition in 2022. Click image for purchase details…
Refractions features a fully-illustrated list of works and transcripts of talks given during the Fallen Visionary retrospective. It is the most complete assessment of Spare’s art and life currently in print; including over 200 images. Click image for purchase details…
