Art And The Album Cover ‘Photography & the Art of the Album Cover’ exhibition at ‘The Photographers' Gallery’ in London plays host a collection of the most legendary album covers shot by photographers. This display features some of the most iconic album covers of our time - and their role in defining music and shaping creators - those both in front of and behind the camera. From the legendary shot of ‘The Beatles’ walking across Abbey Road captured by Iain Macmillan to ‘Nirvana’s' ‘Nevermind’ album cover featuring the (controversial) swimming naked baby shot by Kirk Weddle to pop-art loving ‘Stones’. Over 200 album covers have been brought together in ‘For the Record …' highlighting the collaborations - and bond - between both visual and recording artists, formulating a greater understanding of music and photographic history. ‘Photography & the Art of the Album Cover’, ‘The Photographers' Gallery’, London, April 8 - June 12, 2022. ‘The Beatles’, ‘Abbey Road’, Photographer Ian Macmillan. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #design #words #pictures #exhibition #collaboration #bands #recordingartists #visualaesthetics #musicalaesthetics #annieleibovitz #robertmappelthorpe #andywarhol #cindysherman #davidlachapelle #edruscha #nangoldin #juergenteller #thephotographersgallery #photographyandtheartofthealbumcover (at The Photographers' Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc2VHYDs5Sd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Art And The Album Cover A new exhibition opening at ‘The Photographers’ Gallery’ in London celebrates the album cover as an art form. Curated and presented in collaboration with collector and exhibition originator, Antoine de Beaupré, whose extensive and impressive collection form the basis of the display. Showcasing the talent of photographers and artists including famous names such as David Bailey, Andy Warhol, Joseph Beuys, Helen Levitt and Cindy Sherman, the exhibition takes us on a journey through the changes to music and art through the years. There will be covers you recognise, maybe some you own, and certainly some that bring new stories to the table. 'For the Record …’ brings together over 200 album covers, highlighting the central role photography plays in defining artists and bands. ‘Photography & the Art of the Album Cover’, ‘The Photographers' Gallery’, London, April 8 - June 12, 2022.
