No song seeps into ubiquity by itself; it needs to be
suitably presented. For “Shattered” The Stones returned to the
keen-eyed Hubert Kretzschmar, the very man who’d helped turn their
own “Some Girls” into such an iconic sleeve. Three
decades later Kretzschmar returns to the scene of the imagery, and recasts
it for a brand new century – exclusively available on 1xRUN for one
week.

BIO:
Hubert Kretzschmar was born in Germany. He began his career
as a graphic artist and illustrator after studying visual communication and
painting in 1974. In ‘78, he settled in New York and devoted himself
to illustration and pioneering works of photography, video, sculpture and
computer graphics. During the 1980s, he participated in, and
extensively documented the movement of the graffiti-art scene off the
streets and into New York‘s fine-art galleries. He has designed
iconic album covers for legends of rock and pop music (Rolling Stones, Led
Zeppelin, Iggy Pop, Kraftwerk to name a few), as well as graphics and
designs for most major record labels. His commercial client roster includes
names like Apple, TimeWarner, Viacom, Sony, Nike and Thurn und Taxis.
