For his 1972 cosmic funk album, On the Corner, Miles Davis asked his former flatmate and cartoonist, Corky McCoy, to create an album cover that would appeal to hip young African Americans. Some critics were appalled by what they saw as racially sensitive depictions of African Americans. Corky's multi-hued blaxploitation street scenes of superfly guys, playaz and fine bitches in hot pants and high heels, were a perfect fit for Miles radical music. Corky also drew sleeves for In Concert, Big Fun and Water Babies.

Primarily a painter and sculptor, Tyree Guyton has also been described as an urban environmental artist. He has waged a personal war on urban blight on Detroit's East Side, transforming first a street in his neighbourhood, and then two city blocks into a living indoor/outdoor art gallery by using discarded objects including old shoes, bicycles and baby dolls to embellish abandoned houses, sidewalks and empty lots.

Berthold Lubetkin is widely regarded as the most outstanding architect of his generation to have practised in England. Lubetkin's designs are characterized by clear geometric figures, technical ingenuity, and a functional resolution that show modernism at its most poetic and powerful. Famous works include the Gorilla House and Penguin Pool at London Zoo, Highpoint One/Two Highgate, Dudley Zoo and Finsbury Health Centre.
