“There was an exhibition of either Peter Saville's work or all of the above at Salford Uni at some point also - I went along. Early-mid 90s maybe?

Anyone got any details?”

“There was one at the Cornerhouse later and apparently someone stole the sign that inspired the original Factory logo. Still Peter had taken it himself in the first place so I guess that's karma for you.”

“@tony/longfella The exhibition you are thinking of was called 'Ulterior Motifs' and was an exhibition of logotype design by Malcolm Garrett, including logos for bands such as Buzzcocks. It was shown in Salford Uni in about 1994. This was the last venue in a tour which took the exhibition to Tokyo, London, New York and Savannah.”

“@JSZ The exhibition you are thinking of was called 'Sublime' and featured work by Malcolm Garrett, Peter Saville and many others. The excellent catalogue that accompanied it was designed by David Crow, who is now Dean of Manchester School of Art.”
