Clive Barker is not Clive Barker



Face Dances CorrectionIt turns out that the Clive Barker on the Face Dances
album cover is not the Clive Barker of the Hellraiser series.  Whoops!
Here's a bio I was sent from someone who worked on the cover about the Clive
Barker of Face Dances:

Born in 1940 at Luton. He studied from 1957 to 1959 at the Luton College of
Technology and Art. In 1962 he was represented at the exhibition Young
Contemporaries at the RBA Galleries, London. In 1967 he showed in a number
of collective exhibitions, including: Salon de la Jeune Peintrue, Musée
d'Art Moderne, Paris, Englische Kunst, Galerie Bischofberger, Zurich, and
Young British Artists, Museum of Modern Art, New York. In 1968 he had his
first one-man exhibition at the Robert Frazer Gallery, London. He has shown
at various exhibitions of British artists in Europe, and also at the
exhibition Pop Art in 1987 in Japan. He is known for his bronze casts of
inconspicuous everyday objects, painting tools and star symbols (such as
Marlon Brando's cowboy boots), in which the aura of the precious metal gives
the banal object a strange, enigmatic effect.
