Often described as the godfather of Pop Art, Sir Peter Blake (b.1932) has been closely linked with pop music since the 1950s. Not only has he painted images inspired by his musical heroes such as The Beatles and Elvis Presley but he has also worked closely with major British musicians and bands to create some of the most distinctive album covers of the last 50 years. Most famously he created the iconic album cover for the Beatles' album Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band with the artist Jann Haworth.

This major exhibition, timed to mark the artist's 80th birthday, charts Blake's engagement with American Rock and Roll in the 1950s, The Beatles and British Pop in the 1960s, and his designs for albums by Paul Weller, Eric Clapton, The Blockheads and Oasis, and the Brit Award 2012.

Drawing on the extensive collection of British Pop Art at Pallant House Gallery, the exhibition features loans from public and private collections across the UK. Highlights include Blake's memorable group portrait of the Fab Four, 'The Beatles 1962'; 'Self Portrait with Badges' (1961) which casts himself in the role of fan to the legend of Elvis; and the original collage for the 1984 Band Aid single 'Do they Know It's Christmas?'.

Derek Boshier: David Bowie and The Clash23 June – 7 October 2012

Derek Boshier (b.1937) was a leading figure in the British Pop Art movement in the 1960s. He first came to prominence with his paintings as a student at the Royal College of Art in London where he studied alongside David Hockney, Allen Jones and R.B. Kitaj. In 1962 he was featured in Ken Russell's BBC documentary Pop Goes The Easel with Peter Blake, Pauline Boty and Peter Phillips.

This exhibition, which marks the artist's 75th birthday, focuses on Boshier's graphic work for pop musicians from the 1970s such 'The Clash 2nd Songbook', one of the most vivid visual documents of the punk and post-punk era, and David Bowie's 1979 'Lodger' album.

Artist Pop Stars23 June – 7 October 2012

Music and the visual arts have been closely associated for decades. From the 1960s onwards, bands like the Beatles, The Who and Roxy Music all had at least one member who went to art school before embarking on a music career. Others have pursued painting in the later part of their careers.

This display, which complements Peter Blake and Pop Music, features works by artist pop stars such as Ian Dury, Bryan Ferry and Bill Wyman.

Exhibition Room 4

Adrian Berg: A Memorial Exhibition2 June – 30 September 2012

A memorial exhibition of the landscape painter Adrian Berg RA (1929–2011). A student at the Royal College of Art in the late 1950s, alongside David Hockney, Berg's focus throughout his career was the landscape which he depicted in distinctively vibrant colours. His subjects were, in early years, the view of Regent's Park from his window at Gloucester Gate and, over subsequent decades, many of the best-known parks and gardens of England such as Windsor, Kew, Nymans, Stourhead and Sheffield Park.

Despite being elected as a Royal Academician in 1992, Berg never courted publicity, except the occasional exhibition and annual showing in the RA Summer Exhibition. This is the first exhibition of Berg's work following his death in November 2011.

Prints of Darkness19 June 2012 – 7 October 2012

The record cover provides a fundamental interface between music and the still image, and has become an essential aspect of musical and visual subcultures. This exhibition of contemporary prints recalls the golden age of the vinyl record cover, with references to the imagery of post-psychedelia, goth-surrealistic and art-nouveau designs.

Artists include Christopher Orr, Norman Shaw, The Lonely Piper, Edward Summerton and Mark Wallace. Published by the Edinburgh Printmakers, the prints have been acquired for the permanent collection of Contemporary Scottish Prints through The Golder-Thompson Gift. Free entry
