Think of the best album cover art. They must include Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy, Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here, Peter Gabriel’s eponymous albums, and Band on the Run by Wings. 

These iconic images all have one thing in common: They were all created by the audaciously inventive British graphic art studio known as Hipgnosis.

SQUARING THE CIRCLE (The Story of Hipgnosis) tells the behind-the scenes story of Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey “Po” Powell, the creative geniuses responsible for the most recognizable album covers of all time. The pair became rock royalty during the seventies. They produced mind-blowing visuals that were at the center of the most creative era in popular music.

SQUARING THE CIRCLE (The Story of Hipgnosis) features interviews with Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Nick Mason of Pink Floyd, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, Paul McCartney, Peter Gabriel, Graham Gouldman of 10cc, Glen Matlock of Sex Pistols and many more.
