Pink Floyd (Back Catalogue) 97 Multiple Artists
About this poster
This classic picture commissioned by EMI in 1997, to cleverly advertise the release of the “back” catalogue of Pink Floyd was taken at a private indoor pool in Putney (London Borough of Wandsworth) by photographer Tony May in 1996. The unknown nude models had the cover art of six Pink Floyd albums painted onto their backs by artist Phyllis Cohen.
From left to right, the album covers shown are: 'Atom Heart Mother', 'Relics', 'Dark Side of the Moon', 'Wish You Were Here', 'The Wall' and 'Animals'.
But why containing only women? That old misogyny appearing again? Men and women were in the rough drawings, but I felt that this was wrong. The backs represented album covers and should therefore be the same generically. All men or all women. After much deliberation I chose women. Their shape is more elegant and more sensitive, I feel." - Storm
The original concept and design of painting the Pink Floyd album covers on the backs of models was conceived by Finlay Cowan who worked closely with long-time Pink Floyd graphic artist Storm Thorgerson.
