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. ‘Deceptive Bends 10cc’ features the original photography from the 1977 10cc album of the same name. A fully suited deep sea diver walks towards the viewer, a woman in a red dress draped across his arms. It’s a smart play on the album title and the image is saturated with a potent, haunting quality that transcends its musical context. A must have for the 10cc fan, the retro music collector, and anyone with a keen eye for the iconic.
