Event details: The Sounds I See: Photographs of Musicians
Description
Sometimes photographers take one artist as their subject-such as Emil Cadoo, in his series of portraits of Edith Piaf- or they focus on a specialized aspect of music, such as Ralph Gibson's portraits of contemporary jazz guitarists. In every case, the aim is to convey the musician's personality, style, and stature as a performer. Some of the photographs in this exhibition are formal portraits either taken in a studio or staged in an environment of the photographer's choosing; many were taken in auditoriums, nightclubs, and symphony halls, conveying the fan's experience.
