THE illustration game by jaleen grove

Art historian and assistant Professor of Illustration at Rhode Island School of Design Jaleen Grove created ‘The Illustration Game’ which was originally published in Communication Arts magazine (2019) as an artwork that critically evaluates and satirises the illustration industry from 1959-2019.

​Grove was one of the editors of ‘History of Illustration’ the first significant book on the topic of illustration providing an expansive global overview of illustration practices. I contacted her to ask if she knew of any other games related to illustration, but she wasn’t aware of others specifically focused on illustration.
