There’s something hope-giving about all these stories, especially in this time when artists continually have to place limits on themselves. These are dispatches from a time when no detail was unimportant and anything was possible.

Shot in the black and white that Corbijn favors in his still photography ... except, of course, when it breaks out the dazzling color work done by Hipgnosis itself, “Squaring the Circle” makes the still-living Powell its focus and fulcrum.
