The work of Patrick Nagel was very popular in the 70’s and 80’s. His work appeared in many places but one of the better known images can be seen on the album cover for the band Duran Duran’s 1982 record Rio. Patrick unfortunately passed away in 1984 but his artwork was so popular it became the subject of a counterfeit ring through the early 90’s and his pieces have once again seen a resurgence in popularity throughout recent years.

Simmer Busted Pixels has done both large and small version of some of Patrick’s works which can be found through our download button.
