Dennis Morris is a British photographer best known for his images of Bob Marley and the Sex Pistols. In 1979 he created the logo for the band Public Image Limited and the innovative metal box album packaging. He then became Art Director of Island Records and designed album covers for the likes of Linton Kwesi Johnson, Marianne Faithfull (Broken English) and Bob Marley.
The Sex Pistols were a British punk rock band that formed in London in 1975. They were known for their aggressive, anti-establishment lyrics and rebellious image. Their debut album "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols" is widely regarded as one of the most important albums in the history of punk rock. The band had a short but impactful career, with numerous controversies, including being banned from several venues and their infamous appearance on a live television show. Despite their brief existence, the Sex Pistols left a lasting impact on the music industry and popular culture, influencing countless artists in the decades since their disbandment.

Large SCONFINE Sfera Pendant by Matteo Thun for Zumtobel
By Matteo Thun
Located in Dronten, NL
Large pendant by Italian designer Matteo Thun for Zumtobel lightning.
The spherical pendant luminaires provide an ideal lighting effect due to their partly transparent luminaire unit with reflective chrome coating and opal glass globe inside. Besides directly emitted light, light is reflected inside the luminaire unit, making it seem to float.
Light defines the emotional impact of a room. That is exactly why so many public places such as hotel lobbies and restaurants and even residential living spaces combine functional lighting with a clear element of decorative light.

Signed Naomi Campbell for Vivienne Westwood Large Format Polaroid Photo, 2008
By Vivienne Westwood
Located in London, GB
An original one-off large format Polaroid photograph of Naomi Campbell for the Vivienne Westwood Active Resistance limited edition book produced by Opus.
Signed by Naomi Campbell and photographer Zenon Texeira in marker pen.
Large-format polaroids are extremely rare and unique and as the name suggests, they are of a large scale, the visible image dimensions being 52 cm x 67 cm.
It is an autographed and one-off, unreproducible photograph, as there is no negative.
Large Format Polaroids:
The Polaroid 20×24 camera is a very large instant camera made by Polaroid, with film plates that measure a nominal 20 by 24 inches. Throughout its history, it has been used by many famous photographers, including Robert Rauschenberg and Andy Warhol. Ansel Adams also used the camera, notably to make the first official photographic Presidential portrait, of President Jimmy Carter in 1979. To celebrate Lady Gaga's new role as Creative Director of Polaroid, a portrait of her was shot with the 20×24 camera on June 30, 2010, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
This is the actual one-off Large Format Polaroid Photo taken on one of three of these cameras in existence which are soon to be obsolete because no more of the photographic paper can be made.
The rare Polaroid 20 x 24 camera was brought from Prague to Paris and London for three separate photo shoots for The Official Vivienne Westwood Opus. Featuring Vivienne Westwood’s family and friends wearing clothes from her stunning collections, 97 selected Polaroids, shot by Zenon Texeira in black-and-white, colour and sepia, are displayed in the Opus.
The photos were shown in various venues including the Serpentine Gallery in London on a worldwide tour to promote the book.
Participants included: Vivienne Westwood, Pier Vittorio Aureli, Hilary Koob-Sassen, Ingo Niermann & Zak Kyes, Rasheed Araeen, Peter Cook, Richard Wentworth, Gilbert & George, Ben Vautier, Jonas Mekas, Jean-Jacques Lebel, Tom Mccarthy, Mark Wallinger, Yoko Ono, Barbara Steveni, Ekaterina Degot, Raqs media collective, Nathaniel Mellors, Lee Scrivner, Andrea Branzi, Henry Flynt, Marina Abramovic, Agnès Varda, Susan Hefuna, Stephen Willats, Falke Pisano, Adam Pendleton, Jimmie Durham...
