I’m featuring this image of designer Ben Kelly in his persona of The Photo Kid in my presentation about the design history of 430 at the symposium Dead Or Alive: Popular Culture & The Interior, which takes place today at London’s ICA.
Kelly – who was responsible for the design of Seditionaries – is organising the symposium in his capacity of professor of interiors and spatial studies at University of the Arts London.
With moderators Peter York, Alice Rawsthorne (International Herald Tribune) and Jana Scholze (V&A) the sessions will also include talks and papers presented by interiors architects Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, writer Michael Bracewell, Fred Deakin (UCL chair of interactive art), artist Lucy McKenzie, designer Peter Saville, photographer Bridget Smith, David Toop of the London College Of Communications and Tate Britain’s Andrew Wilson.
The event is sold out. You can find out more here.
