This music and art project is right on time for the holiday gift-giving season. Artists David Shrigley, Stuart Semple, Lyndsay Jameson and Pete Fowler were sent an album by The Futureheads and asked to respond specifically to the music it contained.
The 100 signed, limited-edition prints the artists produced are for purchase. At £50 apiece, each print is a bargain, as this art will only ever be reproduced in this one way. Read below to see what Ross Millard of The Futureheads had to say about the project.
