Latest Festival Flyer update from Cropredy

[ad_1]

We are delighted to welcome ROGER DEAN to Cropredy for the first time.
Roger is one of the most inspiring and innovative album design & landscape artists alive today. His work on gatefold album sleeves for the likes of YES, GREENSLADE, BUDGIE and ASIA are the stuff of legend. The cover for the YES album, “Tales From Topographic Oceans” was voted the best album cover of all time in a Rolling Stone readers online poll.

Trading Boundaries will be exhibiting Roger’s work at stall number 6 on the Jonah’s Oak side of the arena. There will be new works available to buy, plus many of the more famous prints you’ve known and loved for many years.

Roger is really looking forward to Cropredy and will be happy to autograph work purchased on site.

    This post has brought back happy memories of seeing Greenslade at The Greyhound in South Croydon in my youth! Have also visited and shopped at Trading Boundaries 😊.

    Fabulous. I remember seeing his car in Brighton back in the day – painted all over with his amazing artwork. I wonder if he has still got it.

    A fantastic artist; I bought a book of his art more years ago than I care to remember! The cat footprints on one of them for Yessongs (he added clouds to disguise them!) showed me what scale he works at.

    I remember seeing his original paintings at free festival they held at the University of Surrey, many years ago. I hadn’t realised just how big and impressive the originals are..Amazing’

    Nice. It was a treat last fall to see a number of the original paintings here in San Francisco for a month or so.

    I bought the Greenslade album in 1973 based purely on the cover. By happy coincidence I love the music too
