Artwork for the 1979 Funkadelic album, ‘Uncle Jam Wants You’ by Pedro Bell Artist Pedro Bell is probably best known for the album art, cartoons and strange sexed-up illustrations that have appeared on and inside albums for Funkadelic and Funkadelic frontman, George Clinton. In 2009, the Chicago native was in pretty rough shape—he was losing his sight, required dialysis treatments for his failing kidneys, and was almost evicted from his apartment. Thankfully, things have improved for Bell since then and I’m happy to report that he’s got several projects in progress that will hopefully help bring more recognition to his massive, mind-bending body of work. Funkadelic’s “The Electric Spanking of War Babies” by Pedro Bell Gatefold view of the 1978 Funkadelic album, ‘One Nation Under a Groove’ by Pedro Bell. Enlarged image of a cartoon inside ‘One Nation Under a Groove’ taking a jab at Mick Jagger. Album artwork for the 1974 Funkadelic album, ‘Standing on the Verge of Getting It On’ I remember being at the library when I was a kid (you know, that place where they used to have all the books?), and being absolutely fascinated with Bell’s images on...

Chéri Hérouard (1881-1961) was an artist best known for his illustrative work for French magazines like the Catholic girls’ journal La Semaine de Suzette and the gentlemen’s’ weekly La Vie Parisienne for which he supplied the cover art for over forty years. His eye-catching illustrations were highly popular and reflected the noteworthy changes in art from Art Nouveau through Art Deco to pioneering the more modern graphic art/comic book style of the 1940s and 1950s. La Vie Parisienne was the magazine best associated with Hérouard’s artwork. This society weekly featured risque erotica alongside stories and features on art, theater, film, literature, and fashion. It was kind of like Esquire magazine or a classier Playboy without the naked flesh. Hérouard was born Chéri-Louis-Marie-Aime Haumé into a reasonably well-to-do family that lived in the fortified city of Rocroi in the Ardennes district of France. His father died from a freak riding accident just days before his birth. His mother remarried into the Hérouard family—from whom Chéri took his surname. His mother and stepfather thought Chéri was best suited for a career in the military—but their son had a...

A photo of the female professional wrestling team The Beauty Pair. This image was used to help promote a film based on their exploits in the ring. Professional wrestling has a long, storied history in Japan. Active cultivation of the sport was started following WWII as the country was collectively mourning and recovering after the horrendous bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing approximately 200,000 people and other wide-spread, war-related devastation. The sport became hugely popular, and sometime in the mid-1950s wrestlers from the U.S. would make the trip to Japan to grapple with the country’s newest star athletes including an all-female “Puroresu” (professional wrestling) league, All Japan Women’s Pro-Wrestling Association, formed in 1955. Just over a decade later, the league would become All Japan Women’s Pro-Wrestling (AJW), and instead of going at it exclusively with American or other foreign wrestlers, the sport started to pit female Japanese wrestlers against each other which is just as fantastic as it sounds. All-female wrestling in Japan in the 1970s was a glorious wonderland full of tough, athletic women happily defying cultural and gender norms. Matches were broadcast on television and a duo going by the name The Beauty Pair ...

“You’re such an agoniser, Bradley. You romanticise art. You’re a masochist about it, you want to suffer, you want to feel that your inability to create is continuously significant.” ― Iris Murdoch, The Black Prince Roland Topor understood his surroundings because he wasn’t of them? When you’re a stranger, everything is strange. And … Continue reading "The Masochists – A 1960 Study In Extreme Pain"

**Album cover art** is often considered to be one of the "extincted" fields in modern graphics design. In times when digital copies are cheaper and quicker to get, album covers have somehow lost their importance as less and less customers actually buy CDs and LPs in the stores. That's a pity because album covers can be extremely expressive and convey the message of the album in a number of creative ways. This post attempts to prove exactly that.
