Factory Records

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre.

Factory Records est un label musical indépendant anglais créé en 1978 par Anthony Wilson (Tony Wilson) avec Alan Erasmus et Rob Gretton. De 1979 à 1982, des graphistes ou des agences tels que Peter Saville, Central Station Design ou 8vo ont travaillé pour Factory. Leur travail continue aujourd’hui à influencer de nombreux graphistes contemporains. L'esthétique du label est particulièrement marquée par le design graphique minimaliste de Peter Saville : des pochettes n'indiquant parfois pas le nom du groupe, ni même le titre de l'album.
