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. ‘Original Soundtrack 10cc’ features the original artwork from the 1975 10cc album of the same name. Playing with genre, the piece depicts a cowboy through the viewfinder of a retro film camera, complete with reels and spools. Rendered in a sepia toned, illustrative quality, the image consciously straddles style and genre, in subtle reference to the album title. A must have for the 10cc fan, the retro music collector, and anyone with a keen eye for the iconic.
