Mick Rock – EXPOSED!
A retrospective of one of rock music's most iconic photographers, known as 'The Man Who Shot the Seventies'.
Overview
Known as 'The Man Who Shot the Seventies', Mick Rock is the photographer behind some of rock's most iconic images, embodying rock 'n' roll by more than just name.
Beginning his career in 1972 as the official photographer of David Bowie, Rock was the man who chronicled the rise and fall of Ziggy Stardust. Throughout the seventies, he continued to photograph some of music's most influential stars, creating album covers for Lou Reed's Transformer, Syd Barret's The Madcap Laughs, Iggy and the Stooges' Raw Power, Queen's Queen II and the Ramones' End of the Century. Rock also shot and produced several music videos, including 'Life on Mars', 'Space Oddity' and 'Jean Genie'.
His work captures the spirit and defines some of the most groundbreaking bands in music history. Recently Rock has worked with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Johnny Marr, the Chemical Brothers and Kate Moss, and his retrospectives on Glam Rock and the psychedelic-era have been acclaimed worldwide. This month Blender Gallery is presenting Mick Rock - EXPOSED!, a retrospective of Rock's work across the past four decades.
