my Warhol Collection Snap Case


 
I love the combination of art, music, technology & design on this one, something that Andy Warhol had envisioned as part of the future for contemporary culture. The design of both pieces is smooth. For the unknowing, Andy Warhol managed The Velvet Underground for a period in which he introduced them to Nico & suggested they collaborate - resulting in the album 'The Velvet Underground & Nico' released 1967. For the album cover Warhol designed the plastic yellow banana revolutionary for it's irrelevant nature to the band, music etc. along which lines album covers tend to have followed. It was actually a "peel slowly and see" pop art, if you tore along a perforated line to 'remove' the skin underneath was revealed a peeled pink banana.
Japanese re-release (buy at acousticsounds)

(I've decided this section is purely about object lust and no game should be involved!)
