Developing Practice
I am looking at Andy Warhol because he was a significant designer of the 1960's which is one of the music eras I am looking at.
Warhol was best known for his iconic silkscreen print of actress Mariyn Monroe (1962). This piece has become a famous in mainstream culture history and is currently held in the Tate Art Gallery in London.
Also reconised as one of the most iconic albulm cover's of 1967 was Warhol's design for The Velvet Underground + Nico. The design features a printed banana that was peel-able to reveal the pink fruit inside. The Velvet Underground was amongst many psychedelic rock bands in the 60's which was inspired by the hallucinogen LSD and Acid in the music culture scene.
