Not content with a somewhat hyper-active work rate in recent years which has provided a plentiful series of music releases, under his own name and with numerous collaborators, John Foxx has also seen fit to make available some more esoteric releases which focus on his graphical work. Amongst these, and the subject of this blog post, is ‘Science Fiction Stories’. This was a limited edition image collection postcard set which was for sale at the Roundhouse concert in London in 2010.
In a limited edition of just 200 copies, the cards feature a selection of Foxx artworks from several decades now, many of which have already been found on recent CD releases, others I recognise from prints that were part of the ‘Cinemascope’ exhibition held at the Coningsby Gallery in London back in 2007. A nice little selection, but one day a full publication in book form is what would do Mr Foxx’s fine artworks justice.
!!! Not only did I miss the Analogue Roundhouse show [but at least the DVD is forthcoming] but I also missed ltd. ed. artwork, signed by the man! Who knew?
