KENNY MUNRO AT WORK - 80'S

In November 2008 I put a couple of pictures up on Retro featuring the transport panels Kenny Munro designed for the wall of Tay Valley Coaches in Bellfield Street in the early 80's.
Well here's a photo of Kenny installing those very panels, busy at work with the spirit level, making sure the tiles are gonna fit ok.
The transport theme is quite apt as he has since gone on to travel all over the world with his art, exhibiting and educating.
You can check out a few of his ventures on this link www.kennymunrosculpture.com/ and view many of his works, which includes everything from celebrity sculptures to neon light installations.

BELLFIELD STREET PANELS - 1985

In the early 80's, the decision was made to regenerate the Blackness area which had become rather dilapidated by then. One of the ways they used to attract attention to the buildings was to use art. The example above was one of the many projects to catch the publics eye. These Dundee transport themed panels in Bellfield Street were the creation of Kenny Munro, and were made using silk screen prints on tiles.
I took this photo of the car in 1985.
