Artist and graphic designer, Jamie Reid, was born on 16 January 1947. He is best known for his iconic work on the Sex Pistols record covers. With his unique style and rebellious spirit, Reid revolutionized album artwork in the punk rock era. His designs captured the raw energy and provocative nature of the music, making him a key figure in shaping the visual identity of punk culture. Sadly, Jamie Reid passed away on 9 August 2023, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the world of art and music.

The L-13 Light Industrial Workshop and Private Ladies and Gentlemen's Club for Art, Leisure and the Disruptive Betterment of Culture is an independent contemporary art space in Clerkenwell, London. Founded by Steve Lowe, this label is dedicated to promoting and supporting emerging artists who challenge traditional norms.

Located in the vibrant neighborhood of Clerkenwell, L-13 Light Industrial Workshop has become known for its innovative approach to contemporary art. By creating an inclusive space where both established and emerging artists can come together, this label has cultivated a community that celebrates diversity and encourages collaboration.

Aided and abetted by the immediacy of xerox-machines, Jamie Reid has been hooked on the freedom of designing by cut, paste, copy &amp; scrawl since his first encounter with these machines in 1972. Along with a burgeoning DIY scene Reid recognised the errors, experimentation &amp; play inherent in the medium of photocopying made it ideal not just for drafting artwork but for communicating with visceral speed the radical ideas of the time: using it to disseminate agit-prop for the Black Panthers to anti-war rallying cries. Here, the scraps of the medium are the message: cutting room floor detritus encompassing 50 years of protest, music, art, radical thinking &amp; speaking out. From Reid’s beginnings at community activist publication Suburban Press, to punk, the Sex Pistols and beyond, shot through with political &amp; spiritual proclamations this book is a collage testament to Reid’s maxim:&nbsp;Keep Warm, Make Trouble. Introduction by John MarchantEdited and designed by Steve Lowe and John MarchantPublished by the L-13 Light Industrial Workshop in association with John Marchant Gallery
