Kid A Mnesia : A Book of Radiohead Artwork
Radiohead - Book - by Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood
(2021)
Whilst
these records were being conceived, rehearsed, recorded and produced,
Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood made hundreds of images. These ranged
from obsessive, insomniac scrawls in biro to six-foot-square painted
canvases, from scissors-and-glue collages to immense digital landscapes.
They utilised every medium they could find, from sticks and knives to
the emerging digital technologies.
The
work chronicles their obsessions at the time: minotaurs, genocide,
maps, globalisation, monsters, pylons, dams, volcanoes, locusts,
lightning, helicopters, Hiroshima, show homes and ring roads. What
emerges is a deeply strange portrait of the years at the commencement of
this century. A time that seems an age ago - but so much remains the
same.
