Double Take

Robert Heinecken – Are You Rea #1, 1964-68
A new exhibition brings together photographers who appropriate work by others – eerily dislocating it from its original context. Double Take is at Skarstedt, London, from March 7 to April 22. Photo: The Robert Heinecken Trust, courtesy of Cherry and Martin, Los Angeles.

Cover to Cover

艾未未 (Ài Wèiwèi) for “Day & Taxi”
A new book, “Artist Record Covers” (published by Taschen), showcases how artists have used the album cover as a uniquely populist canvas. Here, 艾未未 (Ài Wèiwèi), who would go on to become infamous for his bold work across various media and disputes with the Chinese government, creates a cover for Swiss jazz trio “Day & Taxi” – who also have covers by the likes of Alex Katz, Gilbert & George, and 奈良美智 (Yoshitomo Nara).
