Rodchenko & Popova – Tate Modern

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

I finally managed to drop in to the fantastic Rodchenko & Popova exhibition currently showing at the Tate Modern. There are twelve rooms in total, all comprehensively exploring the development of both artists, including painting, graphic design, photography, cinema, textiles, architecture and even a re-enactment of the Workers Club in room 12.

The exhibition is open until the 17th May. Highly recommended.

Neville Brody – New French Painting (1983)

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

I recently picked up this little fellow, designed by Neville Brody, and published in 1983 by The Museum of Modern Art, Oxford to accompany the exhibition New French Painting. Although he’s only a small chap (15cmx14cm – 96pages), the book as a whole is a lovely object.

Shout Out Out Out Out

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

We’ve just completed this sleeve design for Reintegration Time, the new album from Canadian band Shout Out Out Out Out. The vinyl release will be a triple gatefold containing 3 coloured discs and a QR code hooking up some exclusive digital content. I’ve had a sneak preview of the album and in my humble opinion it’s shaping up to be something a little bit special!

Released soon on Normals Welcome Records.
