This online exhibition by Alex Hamilton is a thank-you-tribute-exhibition to celebrate and acknowledge the absolute power of song, the extraordinary musicians who create this wonder and most prominently the albums they made to tell complete and complex stories. It is also a celebration of the by now almost extinct art of Album Covers which played such an important role in his early visual language development. You can find more info on email with zelda.hamilton@gmail.com or on Facebook, just search for AlexHamiltonArt or on Instagram: alexpopart
