New Order Clown - Euclidian Solids

From 1987-89

Back in the late eighties, I remember the English musical group New Order did a video featuring costumes modeled after designs by a surrealist artist. Unfortunately I never paid much attention to who the artist was, but the costumes made the wearers seem to be clownish because they obstructed movement. The video as I remember featured these clowns carrying around and arranging large forms of squares and spheres. It didn't make much sense, but the images persisted in my brain until I had to jot them down. Please if anyone remembers or knows who the designer was, I would appreciate knowing.
