Tony Mott: What a Life!
Spend time with Australia's premiere gig photographer.
Overview
Eminent Australian rock photographer Tony Mott has had a pretty sweet time on the road with some of the world’s most respected musicians. If you fancy a glimpse into his impressive portfolio, the State Library of NSW will be showcasing a selection of his work in What a Life!. You will see awe-inspiring shots of Iggy Pop bounding off speakers as well as Mick Jagger caught mid-swagger.
A photograph of Chrissy Amphlett, lead singer of the Divinyls, taken back in 1983, catapulted Mott into the music industry. He has since published over 30,000 photographs in 20 countries. As well as capturing the raw power of rock ‘n’ roll, Mott has documented the changing nature of live music in Australia, from the advent of digital photography to the loss of countless entertainment venues.
