In addition to The White Stripe's album cover, Silverchair (alt. rock band from down under) also has a De Stijl influenced cover! Basically a carbon copy of a Mondrian painting in 3D. Mondrian would not approve of this!
Rather than viewing history as the linear progress of civilizations or chronicles of “great men,” we will explore alternative approaches, having short, tempestuous affairs with historical designers and movements that allow us to “give birth” to new work. Our mascot is Kid Eternity, the 1940s comic book character who could summon dead heroes to help him fight evil. (Image above from the 1990s version of Kid Eternity showing the kid with beat hero Neal Cassady, by Ann Nocenti and Sean Philips, DC Comics Sept 1993.)
