Grace Jones: Nightclubbing (1981)

This original Island Records promo poster is from the first release of Nightclubbing in 1981. The art is design by Jean Paul Goude and has since become arguably one of the most iconic music posters of all time.

Probably the single most famous image of Grace Jones, Jean Paul Goude's 1981 'Blue-black in black on brown' created as oil paint on cut up photo. Jean Paul Goude: "Grace was very open. We worked together to create this intimidating character. I mean, she's naturally intimidating anyway...I tried to emphasize that body shape through a sort of minimalist German expressionism, with its games of shadows and its angular shapes."
