Pink Floyd reveal multi-sensory exhibition
Pink Floyd members Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Nick Mason are working on a multi-sensory exhibition which aims to offer a “vast and innovative” insight into their career when it opens in Milan in September.
Masterminded by the band’s Italian promoter Fran Tomasi, The Pink Floyd Exhibition – Their Mortal Remains will run for a week and cover 2,500 square metres of former factory La Fabbrica Del Vapore.
Curator Aubrey Powell of Hipgnosis fame has assembled more than 300 artefacts from Floyd’s four-decade history. The installation is being designed by the late Mark Fisher’s Stufish company, who have a long history of creating stage sets for the band.

Powell says: “If ever a band lent itself to a major retrospective exhibition, it’s Pink Floyd. Selecting what to include from such a treasure trove is both a dream and a nightmare. However, there were elements that just had to be included, for example a twenty-metre wide sculpture of The Wall, five-metre high inflatables, and of course, a flying pig.
“We’ll be aiming for state-of-the-art visuals and sonic delivery, similar to the experience of attending a Pink Floyd concert; you’ll never know what to expect next.”
The Pink Floyd Exhibition – Their Mortal Remains opens on September 19, with tickets on sale this Thursday (February 27) via

Pink Floyd, llega la muestra ‘Their mortal remains¨
“The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains”, es una muestra multimedia dedicada a la legendaria banda inglesa. La primera etapa de la exposición se celebrará en la ciudad italiana de Milán para el próximo 19 de septiembre y las entradas estarán disponibles a partir de mañana desde las 11 de la mañana en la página oficial del evento “pinkfloydexhibition.com”. Esta muestra recorrerá toda la carrera de la banda a través de 300 objetos que estarán expuestos en una superficie de 2500 metros cuadrados.“Pink Floyd es uno de los pocos grupos que ha sido capaz de crear una propia retrospectiva” ha declarado Powell, “Realizar una muestra como esta es algo muy sencillo: la band ha creado una serie de objetos muy peculiares y únicos que representan un patrimonio importante no solo para los apasionados de música si no también para descifrar el mensaje artístico de Pink Floyd de un punto de vista más general”.
Mas de 4 décadas en exhibición en esta muestra de Pink Floyd, la banda que revoluciono los conciertos para el Rock.
