Example 10 Mike Joyce


 

Joyce, Mike. "The Smiths at the Venue". 1983.

As I continue my research, I came across an artist that bases his work off of Swiss style designs. Mike Joyce is a solo artist and designer based out of New York.He has designed album packaging for established artists including Iggy Pop, Katy Perry, The Cars, Fall Out Boy, Thirty Seconds to Mars, Natalie Merchant, The Lemonheads, Willie Nelson, Morphine, The Replacements, Miles Davis, Richard Hell & The Voidoids, Heart, The Runaways, Sevendust, Foo Fighters, Barenaked Ladies, Cursive, David Sedaris, New York Dolls, Blue Man Group, Vampire Weekend, and Aretha Franklin. He has created logos and posters for a wide variety of artists including The Strokes, Madonna, Eminem, The Stooges, The All American Rejects, Gorillaz, Raphael Saadiq, AFI, Jesse Malin, Lorde, Placebo, Jason Mraz, D Generation, Kasabian, Joss Stone, and Maroon 5.

In 2012 Mike launched Swissted, a personal art project combining his love of Swiss graphic design and punk rock by redesigning vintage concert flyers into hundreds of striking International Typographic Style posters. The image above is one of many designs showcased in Swissted. 

I absolutely love these designs and plan to continue researching Joyce so I can implement his ideas into my own work.
