Call for new permanent location for Manchester’s Ian Curtis mural
An appeal has been launched to find a new permanent site in Manchester’s Northern Quarter for a mural of Joy Division’s Ian Curtis, which was painted over with an advert for Aitch’s debut album last month.Manchester councillor Pat Karney says that a new location for the artwork needs to be found because the owner of the building where it previously appeared now wants to use the walls for advertising. Which would explain the whole it being painted over by an Aitch ad thing.“It would be silly to put the mural back up there because it could be taken down again quite quickly and we’d go through the same routine”, Karney told BBC Radio Manchester yesterday.
