What do Pink Floyd, Biffy Clyro, AC-DC, Muse, Olivia Newton John, Led Zeppelin, The Mars Volta, The Cranberries and Black Sabbath have in common? All have had album covers designed by Storm Thorgerson. In celebration of Storm's extraordinary career in design and following his untimely death earlier this year, StormStudios and The Proud Archivist have brought together a retrospective of his work in the venue's launch exhibition The Gathering Storm - The Album Art of Storm Thorgerson, 23 October to 1 December. The exhibition will feature a plethora of images from the beginnings of Storm's career as co-founder of Hipgnosis to his more recent work with StormStudios, from those created for well-known bands like Pink Floyd (including the famous prism design for 'The Dark Side of the Moon'), Led Zeppelin, Biffy Clyro and Muse through to obscure and rarely seen gems. The Gathering Storm will provide a chance to see these iconic images as large high quality silkscreen/ giclee prints, pulsing with detail and colour.
