Editing Colourbox (section)

==Post-breakup==
For a brief time following Colourbox's dissolution, Martyn Young served as a producer on records by acts as diverse as [[The Christians (band)|The Christians]] and fellow labelmates [[The Wolfgang Press]], whilst former singer Lorita Grahame lent her vocals to a record released by short-lived [[One Little Indian Records|One Little Indian]] act Hit the Roof (on a cover of [[Edwin Starr]]'s "Contact"). Since then, little has been heard from any of the group members, save for a brief return to promotional duties for Martyn Young in 2001, to oversee the release of the Colourbox compilation ''Best of Colourbox 82/87''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.4ad.com/colourbox/profile/ |title=4AD - Colourbox |accessdate=2008-02-10 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080509140430/http://4ad.com/colourbox/profile/ |archivedate=9 May 2008 |df=dmy }}</ref>

4AD released a self-titled box set of four compact discs, compiling all of their catalogue (the full-length album with its companion remix album in full, a 7" mix CD, a 12" mix CD, and the first EP with two BBC Radio sessions and a previously unreleased mix of "Arena") on 21 May 2012.  The collection, marking the 30th anniversary of the group, was sequenced by Martyn Young.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://4ad.com/news/14/2/2012/4adtorelease4cdcolourboxbestofcompilation |title=4AD |website=4AD.com |date=2012-02-14 |accessdate=2016-07-19}}</ref>

In 2014, Colourbox were the subject of an exhibition, ''Music of the Band (1982 - 1987)'', curated by [[Wolfgang Tillmans]] at his Between Bridges gallery in Berlin. A CD compilation of 16 tracks selected by Tillmans was released by 4AD to tie in with the exhibition.<ref>{{Cite web |first=Alex |last=Needham |url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2014/sep/12/wolfgang-tillmans-music-playback-room-berlin-gallery |title=Wolfgang Tillmans to open music 'playback room' in Berlin gallery |work=[[The Guardian]] |date=12 September 2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.4ad.com/news/item/12/9/2014/wolfgangtillmanscuratedexhibitionexclusivecompilation |title=4AD - Wolfgang Tillmans Curated Exhibition, Exclusive Compilation |accessdate=2014-12-13 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141213175009/http://www.4ad.com/news/item/12/9/2014/wolfgangtillmanscuratedexhibitionexclusivecompilation |archivedate=13 December 2014 |df=dmy }}</ref>  The collection was reissued in 2017, with the addition of a double LP edition, in conjunction with Tillmans' exhibit at the Tate Modern in London.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Roberts |first=Chris |date=2017-06-23 |title=Colourbox - Music Of The Band (1982 – 1987) album review |url=https://www.loudersound.com/reviews/colourbox-music-of-the-band-1982-1987-album-review |access-date=2024-09-30 |website=Louder |language=}}</ref>
