英国ポップ・アートの先駆者として知られるアーティストのデレク・ボシャー*1が現地時間９月５日に羅府の自宅にて息を引き取った。享年87歳。
彼は、ロック・ファンにとっては、クラッシュのジョー・ストラマー*2やデヴィッド・ボウイとの関係で有名である筈である。
『ガーディアン』の記事から切り抜くと、
さらに、アルバムLet’s Danceのアート・ワークも。
After his training at the Royal College, Boshier taught at the Central School of Art and Design, where one of his pupils was John Mellor, later known as Joe Strummer, of the Clash. This led to Boshier designing the Clash’s second songbook, which included a collection of drawings and paintings released in conjunction with the 1978 album Give ’Em Enough Rope.Another relationship with a musician – this time David Bowie, whom Boshier helped create the sleeve for the third album of his Berlin trilogy, Lodger – was forged after the Lives exhibition at the Hayward Gallery in 1979.
