Annie Leibovitz’s photo exibition in Detroit, MI, USA
As seen on The Michigan Journal, an exibition of Annie Leibovitz’s photography called Annie Leibovitz: American Music, organized by the Experience Music Project (EMP) of Seattle, WA, is now at the Detroit Institute of Arts for a limited time.
The history of American music is filled with rich stories behind the artists and the songs people around the world have loved; stories of love come and gone, the making of lifelong musical partnerships and the development of such prominent areas of music as jazz, blues, rock and hip hop. Documented through several series of photographs, renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz has captured the essence of American music in a new exhibition of the same name.
And, most importantly and the only reason it’s posted here for…
The fourth room focuses on contemporary music and features pictures of artists like Brian Wilson, Bruce Springsteen, Lucinda Williams, Bonnie Raitt and Red Hot Chili Peppers’ guitarist John Frusciante. Wilson’s portrait photograph stands out as it juxtaposes the “fun in the sun” image of the Beach Boys with a dark sky and impending storm in the background of the picture, which features a somber Wilson.
So, if you live in USA, close to Detroit and are able to go to this nice exibition, this might be an additional reason for you.
