There’ll be more reflections on Pink Floyd‘s career and legacy at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London next year.
The latest V&A exhibition is being described as ‘an immersive, multi-sensory and theatrical journey through Pink Floyd’s extraordinary world’, and will be held from May 13th-October 1st 2017 after the release of a 27-disc ‘Early Years 1965-1972’ box-set this coming November.
“Alongside creating extraordinary music, they have for over five decades been pioneers in uniting sound and vision, from their earliest 1960s performances with experimental light shows, through their spectacular stadium rock shows, to their consistently iconic album covers,” director of the V&A, Martin Roth, says.
“The exhibition will locate them within the history of performance, design and musical production by presenting and complementing the material from Pink Floyd’s own archive with the V&A’s unrivalled collections in architecture, design, graphics and literature.”
Pink Floyd members have contributed to the over 350 artefacts which will be on display, these including instruments, handwritten lyrics and stage set designs.
