Interview with Susan Archie



Creative Loafing's Wyatt William's interview with Run for Cover artist, Susan Archie is now available on their website. You can read the full interview here.
"Simply put, Susan Archie is responsible for some of the most memorable cover art of the last decade. Working as a freelance graphic designer with a number of loyal record labels, Atlanta’s Dust-to-Digital and Table of the Elements among them, Archie’s work has been repeatedly nominated for Box Set Packaging Grammy awards (four in the past six years) and praised by the New York Times. As anyone who has picked up a copy of Goodbye, Babylon or Screamin’ & Hollerin’ the Blues can tell you, Archie brings a true artist’s attention to detail in her designs. These multilayered, ornate packages work to evoke the obsessive, nostalgic moods associated with record collecting and archiving. Some of her work can be seen at Spruill Gallery’s current exhibition, Run for Cover."
