Postmodern Suicide : The Intersection of Peter Saville Factory Records and Joy Division (10/28)



A special guest lecture and discussion in graphic design history on the influence of Peter Saville and Factory Records on postmodern design, along with an examination of the music and ideas that made this design phenomenon possible. The focus will lurch from Situationism in France in the late 1960s, protopunk and punk rock in the '70s, to the post-punk and new wave era of Joy Division, The Durutti Column, Cabaret Voltaire, New Order, and Happy Mondays.


Free and open to the public. Held over at Art Center at the LA Times Media Center. All info here.
