A recently opened exhibition of Hipgnosis pictures and artwork in Germany has been attracting a lot of interest from visitors, along with local media. Co-curator Aubrey 'Po' Powell was in touch with us, to provide some more detail on this for you all.
Po said: "The Hipgnosis Exhibition 'Breathe' opened on Sunday 21st January to an enthusiastic crowd of 400 people. The exhibition runs over 3 floors of this wonderful gallery and contains 150 Hipgnosis pictures, curated by myself and John Colton of the Browse Gallery, Berlin. There has been great press and TV coverage.
"The initial rooms celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon and all the artwork that has been designed by Hipgnosis or Storm Studios over the past fifty years related to that celebrated album. The Ludwig Schloss Gallery is in Oberhausen, 30 minutes by car from the centre of Dusseldorf. Germany has always been a huge admirer of Pink Floyd, and Hipgnosis, and this marks the sixth exhibition held over the last five years in that country, with many thanks to the continued support from Pink Floyd."
For more information on the gallery, and the exhibition - which runs until May 2024 - please visit Ludwiggalerie.de. Our thanks to Po for the update, as well!
