Atom Heart Mother Review

Pink Floyd's groundbreaking album, Atom Heart Mother, is a testament to the band's innovative approach to music and art. Released in 1970, this iconic album defied conventions by featuring neither a title nor a photograph of the band on its cover. Instead, it boasted a simple yet striking image of a cow, designed by Storm Thorgerson.

The artwork published, printed or marketed by Hypergallery is of the highest quality, and we're proud to offer this limited edition print as part of our collection. Measuring 19 x 19 inches, with a paper size of 25.5 x 33 inches, this stunning piece is a must-have for any Pink Floyd fan.

The cow, aptly described by Thorgerson as 'your regular cow, your standard cow, what every cow should look like,' is more than just an ordinary image. It's unexpected, eye-catching, and a reflection of the band's desire to break free from traditional norms in music and art. This print celebrates Pink Floyd's big breakthrough, which saw them reach No.1 with one of the world's most progressive psychedelic albums.

As the first Pink Floyd cover not to feature the band's name or photographs of the band members, Atom Heart Mother marked a significant departure from their previous work. Storm Thorgerson's design, created using just two rolls of 120 film in a field outside London, set the tone for subsequent covers throughout the 1970s and beyond.

This striking print is a testament to Pink Floyd's innovative spirit and their willingness to push boundaries. It's a must-have for any fan of the band or psychedelic rock music, and a reminder of the power of art to challenge and inspire us.
