314X314 2009 Art Exhibition- portion of proceeds will benefit Road Recovery...

The aim of 314x314 is to invite all the people that helped shape generations of music lovers, artists, photographers and designers for an exhibition in celebration of the 12" record cover and to bring awareness to the dangers of drug and alcohol dependency within the music industry. How this would be achieved is by asking you, the creative force behind some of the most historic sleeve designs past and present to produce an artwork for either an imaginary band, a re-work of a sleeve which you weren't happy with due to outside influences or a sleeve by another designer which you would have loved to have done yourself. It would also be fair to ask the bands/artists themselves to produce an artwork based on the above parameters as without them there would be no-one to design for. We would also like to open this brief to anyone with creative flair who has a passion for music or has had an album sleeve influence their lives.  

Once all the artwork has been submitted, an exhibition will take place the Notting Hill Arts Club where all the work produced will be auctioned and the proceeds going to Roadrecovery in NYC and YouthMusic in the UK. The exhibition will also exhibit in New York before arriving back in the UK for a final event and award the creative judged to be the best by our panel of judges.
