Christian Legier has worked and been recognised in the fashion world for 30 years for his work as a fashion designer and his affinity for vintage and upcycling.
For him, fashion, art and music are forever linked.
His desire to paint comes from his passion for pop culture and street art, which he decides to mix with vinyl in his paintings. In fact, he wants to tell the story of the album cover.
The album cover takes pride of place at the centre of the work, blending into an interpretation of the cover's off-screen setting. Listening to the record is fundamental to the creative process.

The Velvet Underground
Nico, Unripened (LP), 2007
By (after) Andy Warhol
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The Velvet Underground & Nico
The Velvet Underground & Nico Produced by Andy Warhol, Unripened, 2007
Vinyl, LP
Label: Not On Label (The Velvet Underground)
Country: Sweden
Cover art designed by Andy Warhol
Dimensions: 12 x 12 inches (30.48 x 30.48).
Both the record and cover are in very good overall vintage condition. Well suited for framing.
Though The Velvet Underground existed for less than three years with its original members, it is considered to be not just the ‘ultimate New York band’ but also the most influential group ever. Artists who have acknowledged such influence include David Bowie, The Sex Pistols, Patti Smith, Joy Division and Nirvana.
Witts places the band and its genesis in the cultural context of Manhattan’s beatnik bohemianism, its radical artistic environment, and the city’s negative reaction to California’s ‘Hippie’ counterculture. Lou Reed’s song factory background is also considered, while his Primitives (1964-5) and Velvet Underground songs (1965-70) are examined within the stylistic context of rock music. The band’s sound world is likewise considered in this light. John Cale’s experimental contribution is assessed, especially his work for LaMonte Young (The Theatre of Eternal Music) and what he carried from that experience into the Velvet’s sound.
The visual artist Andy Warhol became the band’s manager and producer in 1965. He placed his ‘superstar’ Nico in the line-up (which already included a female drummer). The radical nature of the group’s Warhol period performances are examined, together with those aspects related to issues of gender, sexuality and drugs culture...
