This exhibition is to introduce and show the viewers the photographers of different rock and roll artists. The ten different photographers have taken photos of a rock star or rock stars due to the photographers love for the music and passion for photography. Each work presents a talented musician, photographed by a inspired ambitious photographer. These gifted, artistic photographers that are presented are able to tell stories, show emotions, inspire millions of people, and most importantly let the viewers experience the rock and roll history just through a single photo. These photographs provide a visual to the audience and allow them to go back in history of these legendary musicians thanks to the photographers. When selecting photographers to place in the dedicated "Photographers of Rock and Roll Artists", was not easy. I chose the photos that I favored the most, which started out with "Abbey Road" by Iain Macmiller. I kept to photos I have seen around throughout the media for years. In addition, I chose certain photos based off my favorite rock and roll artists. So not only did I select this photographers based off their influential photographs they produced, but also which singer or band they photographed. My love for the rock and roll artists is unbelievable, and I am always thankful for the talented photographers who let me experience the musicians lives and performances from the past. Without the photographers, we would have never experienced classical rock and roll history and the transformation of music which has impacted many lives today.
