About

Jill Furmanovsky : Photographing the Invisible

For the last 50 years, Jill Furmanovsky has been photographing music's greatest icons. Now for the first time, Jill has created a fascinating retrospective featuring some of her most famous works as well as hidden gems from her extensive archive.

Guest curated by Noel Gallagher and photo-historian Gail Buckland, the exhibition which is presented by Rockarchive.com features over 100 images including subjects such as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Miles Davis, The Police, Bob Marley, Chic, The Rolling Stones, The Clash, The Cure, Amy Winehouse, Stevie Wonder, The Pretenders and Beyonce, to name just a few.

Highlights include 'meditations from the pit' that capture the sheer joy and exuberance of live photography, intimate on-the-road shoots carried out for the music press of the 70's, 80's and 90's and fashion-inspired portraiture from The Face era. Through the exhibition, visitors will be witness to Jill's unique relationship with her subjects including more reclusive subjects such as Jeff Buckley, Eric Clapton and Bob Dylan, as well as open-armed collaborations with Chrissie Hynde, Madness, and her greatest muse, Oasis, for whom Jill has included a section of previously unseen images. Contemporary content includes photographs taken in her year as Abbey Road's artist-in-residence in 2017 and shots from the Glastonbury Festival featuring Stormzy and Billie Eilish.

Bringing the stories behind some of the imagery closer, an audio tour narrated by Jill and some special guests will be available for visitors to access through their own headphones.
