OFFSET 2015 | TOMI UNGERER

OFFSET 2015 | TOMI UNGERER What will probably go down as not only one of the great talks of the year, but in OFFSET history, was when we were all lucky enough to witness Tomi Ungerer in conversation with Irish illustrator, Steve Simpson. With the first, and richly deserved standing ovation of the weekend, Tomi urged us to be ‘endlessly curious’ and brought us on a touching and captivating journey through his life and his work.
