Since the birth of modernity, visual production and music have had a particularly intimate relationship. From Luigi Russolo's 1913 futurist manifesto L’Arte dei Rumori (The Art of Noises) to Marcel Duchamp's double-sided records Rotereliefs, the 20th century produced a fertile exchange between sounds and forms, between symbols and melodies, and between different fields of composition and performance.

In this unique anthology created by Francesco Spampinato, which gathers 450 record covers conceived as artistic works in themselves from the 1950s to today, we discover the rhythm of a singular creative history. A display that reveals how modernism, pop art, conceptual art, postmodernism, and various expressions of contemporary art have shaped this particular field of visual production and helped the popular distribution of music through iconic images. An imagery that evocatively and immediately recalls the auditory experience.

Along the way, we encounter the urban hieroglyphs of Jean-Michel Basquiat for his own record label, Tartown; Banksy's graffiti for Blur; and Salvador Dalí's pinned butterfly for Lonesome Echo, by Jackie Gleason. The covers are accompanied by brief analyses of each, as well as a sheet with the artist's name, performer, album title, record label, and release year, along with information about the original artwork. Interviews with Tauba Auerbach, Shepard Fairey, Kim Gordon, Christian Marclay, Albert Oehlen, and Raymond Pettibon add reflections and personal viewpoints on this collaborative and captivating relationship between visual artists and musicians.
