Brownjohn, Bond and The Stones
October 18, 2005

Famed for his decadent lifestyle and extraordinary talent, Robert Brownjohn was among the most gifted graphic designers of the 1950s and 1960s.

After studying under László Moholy-Nagy, he made his name as an innovative typographer and image-maker in late 1950s New York before moving to London in 1960.

Brownjohn formed a film company with the producer David Cammell and director Hugh Hudson.

He captured the experimental spirit of the era by applying modernist visual theory to mainstream culture in the titles of the James Bond films Goldfinger and From Russia With Love, artwork for the Rolling Stones [left - cake baked by Delia "Let's be 'aving you" Smith!] and graphics for the Robert Fraser Gallery.
