The Scottish Sunday Herald’s Teddy Jamieson has sent me this piece about the late graphic artist David Band, who is probably best known for his work for such 80s groups as Spandau Ballet and Altered Images but established a strong reputation in Australia before succumbing to cancer at the age of 51 last year.

April 24, 2012 at 6:46 amThis was a really nice article that goes some way toward raising David Band’s profile again. He was so prolific back in the day yet his designs go largely overlooked when looking back at the 1980s. He remained active in the art scene until his untimely death and left behind an incredible body of work. For a snapshot of his creativity as part of The Cloth collective, see http://www.thecloth.co.uk – there’s also a Facebook group where people can share stories and images.
