Design duo Storm Thorgerson Aubrey Powell better known by their collective name Hipgnosis are renowned in the music world for creating iconic cover art for rock and roll greats. From Pink Floyd to Paul McCartney, Hipgnosis have been behind some of the most well know and well loved album artworks, shaping the aesthetic of the music industry since the late 1960s. This new series of limited editions brings the images back to life as archival inkjet prints, each one in beautiful, never before seen, clarity. ‘Deadlines Strawbs’ is a reprint of the 1977 Strawbs album of the same title, esoterically featuring a figure suspended in water within a glass telephone box. It’s an iconic image, even without its musical context, finished with a deep purple sunset above a desolate vista, stretching away as far as the eye can see. A must have for the Strawbs fan, the retro music collector, and anyone with a keen eye for the iconic.
