Storm Thorgerson - Taken By Storm exhibition

Further to our previous news items about the "Taken By Storm: The Art of Storm Thorgerson" exhibition, we now have a collection of dates and venues in the US and Europe of forthcoming showings.

The exhibition features many of Storm's classic Floyd images alongside work for other bands such as Muse, Mars Volta and The Cranberries. It features a wealth of absorbing images, and is a great look through Storm's career to date - certainly not to be missed.

 

As part of the exhibition, limited edition signed and numbered fine art prints, original sculpture and one-of-a-kind artwork will be available at participating galleries, on the gallery websites and at www.takenbystorm.us, where you will find up-to-date information on the tour.

The first of the shows was held at the John Martin Gallery in London show, where we enjoyed a long and fascinating chat with Storm. Highlights of our conversation and pictures of the exhibition can be seen through this link.

As you may have noticed, each venue has a specific name for the exhibition - but they all should have similar/the same contents. Dates and venues in other places (Asia, for example) are currently being worked on.
