We can say with pride, since we were lucky or (hey, maybe even)\u00a0insightful enough to ask Belgian collage artist\u00a0Sammy Slabbinck to design for us before he hit the big-time, that Sammy is\u00a0getting the\u00a0worldwide recognition he deserves!<\/p>\n

It seems his surrealistic collage style, which certainly has roots in traditional Belgian surrealism and magic realism, is becoming a coveted style by big bands, big brands and great artists.<\/p>\n

<\/iframe><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/z4dyk-OqhY8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\nAfter a stint with Coldplay basing their last videoclip\u00a0‘Up & Up’ on his work (but failing to give the appropriate credit to Sammy), and creating an animation video for Gucci and their new shoe line,\u00a0he now also has created the album cover for Leonard Cohen’s ‘You want it darker’.<\/p>\nThis was made possible with credit to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sammyslabbinck\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>, which allows for an artist’s work to be picked up by anyone around the world. In this case by Cohen’s son, who was so intrigued by Sammy’s work, he then asked the artist\u00a0for this notable honour. The cover shows Cohen with cigarette in hand, staring into cubic space. Simplicity that conveys the style of Cohen – unique style and raw authenticity that he maintained to the end of his life – merged with Sammy’s playful treatment of geometric shapes.<\/p>\nLeonard Cohen was able to release this work before sadly passing away at age 82 on 7 november 2016. His unique voice, his mellow composure and the mark he made on music\u00a0will be with us forever.
