THE WILD WORLD OF BARNEY BUBBLES - PAUL GORMAN ...

A celebration of a graphic design genius  published to mark what would have been his 80th
birthday. The Wild World of Barney Bubbles celebrates the graphic design genius whose work
linked the underground optimism of the 60s to the sardonic and manipulative art that
accompanied the explosion of punk. Barney Bubbles remains a powerful influence on contemporary
artists four decades after his death  having encompassed designs for Sir Terence Conran and
underground magazines Oz and Friends as well as remarkable record sleeves and posters for Billy
Bragg  Elvis Costello  Depeche Mode  Ian Dury  Hawkwind  The Damned and Nick Lowe. He also
collaborated with artists and photographers  including Derek Boshier and Brian Griffin  and
produced paintings  furniture  set designs and promo videos  not least the era-defining clip
for The Specials' 80's hit  'Ghost Town'. This revised edition of Paul Gorman's definitive
Barney Bubbles monograph contains hundreds of rare and previously unpublished photographs 
working sketches  notebooks and original artwork. It includes a new essay by American designer
Clarita Hinojosa and sixteen extra pages of rare ephemera painstakingly collected by the author
over the years.
