_______
Through the 80s and 90s Peter Ravn was a central figure in the danish field of design and music with his work on design and visual identity as sleeve and poster designer, director of music videos and concept developer.
He was behind a string of the most remarkable Danish record sleeves and was a pioneer in the danish music video. Through the 80s and 90s he developed groundbreaking and visually experimenting music videos for many of the biggest names in Scandinavian rock and pop.
In the 90s, Ravn was the architect behind the fashion project DEMOCRATS, which was characterised by T-shirts with conceptual graphic designs boasting philosophical, political and often controversial slogans.
Around the millennium Ravn began to paint.
