The Scottish artist David Band, who died last year, is to be remembered at the Glasgow School of Art this summer.

Friends and family have been invited to a celebration of his work to be held at the School in June.

Band, a GSA graduate, was famous in the 1980s for his record sleeve designs for Scottish bands Altered Images and Aztec Camera and for his work with Spandau Ballet on their multi-million selling True single and album. He also worked with many of the leading fashion designers including Betty Jackson and Jeff Banks, before leaving Britain to live in Australia.

He died at his home in Melbourne last April after a battle with cancer.

"We feel that David's memorial will mean so much to us and his family and friends who could not be at the celebration of his life in Melbourne," his mother, Margaret Band, said. "The fact that this will be at Glasgow School of Art will make it even more special."
