Tues10th Nov: Rankin Destroy for Youth Music







Here are some of the other 73 artworks on show at the Destroy exhibition which opens to the public today.  The auction is on Saturday (this Sat 14th) at Phillips de Pury & Company which you can attend by rsvp destroy@youthmusic.org.uk.  There is a Damien Hirst canvas of Joe Strummer and a Matt Collishaw piece for Kitty, Daisy and Lewis.  Here Ive snapped some of my personal faves just from remembering them so vividly from their original spreads in Dazed (Nina Cherry, Jarvis Cocker, David McAlmont, Tricky.........there is a Howie B one too somewhere).
My owl wasn't the only garment that had been constructed............here is a dress by John Richmond for Mel C which was displayed on a mannequin.
Here is also the Little Boots portrait which was customized by her graphic designer/art director/super talented illustrator Chrissie Abbott.  The two have also collaborated on a t-shirt design for Youth Music and Victoria will be performing a gig at the exhibition on Thurs day at 6:30...............for anyone who wants to catch her at the same time as checking out the show......
