The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford is currently hosting a must-see exhibition for music and art enthusiasts alike. 'This Is What You Get' showcases the collaborative works of Stanley Donwood and Thom Yorke, the creative minds behind Radiohead's distinctive visual identity.
A Visual Journey Through Radiohead's Legacy
Visitors can expect an immersive experience featuring never-before-seen artwork from the band's album covers, alongside personal projects that reveal the duo's unique creative process. The exhibition spans their 30-year partnership, offering insights into how their visual language evolved alongside Radiohead's musical journey.
Beyond the Band: Solo Works Take Center Stage
While Radiohead fans will find plenty to admire, the exhibition also highlights Donwood and Yorke's independent ventures. From Yorke's abstract digital creations to Donwood's politically charged landscapes, the show demonstrates their versatility beyond music-related artwork.
Why This Exhibition Matters
'This Is What You Get' represents a rare opportunity to see how visual art and music intersect in contemporary culture. The Ashmolean's decision to host this exhibition bridges the gap between traditional fine art and modern popular culture, challenging conventional museum boundaries.
The exhibition runs until late autumn, with special events including artist talks and limited-edition print releases scheduled throughout its duration.
