ONE love, blood, life
Rock photos go on show
By Helen Boylan
Van Morrison, Sinead O'Connor, Shane MacGowan, Christy Moore and members of U2 will be in Dublin's Temple Bar next Friday.
The Rockarchive Gallery in Temple Lane South will feature photographs of these and other artists in the Irish collection of rock photographer Jill Furmanovsky. Her photographs will be available as a series of limited edition A3 and A2 colour and black and-white prints, embossed, numbered and signed by Furmanovsky. They range in price from ?230 to ?455.
The exhibition will include rare images of Irish artists including Phil Lynott and the Boomtown Rats from the photographer's archives. There will also be images from some of the gallery's 18 other rock archive contributors, such as Storm Thorgerson, David Corio, Martyn Goodacre and Jorgen Angel.
Other music icons adorning the gallery walls include a pensive Jeff Buckley by Furmanovsky (1994), Bob Dylan at the Isle of Wight festival by Terry Spencer (1969), a head-turning Debbie Harry in New York by Kate Simon (1977), and a very troubled Tina Turner with her husband, Ike, just before their marriage break-up, also by Furmanovsky (1975).
"The ultimate goal of this collection is to create an archive that does justice to the very broad spectrum that is Irish music, from Planxty to Thin Lizzy, Rory Gallagher to Damien Dempsey and everywhere in between," said Becky Dunford, owner of the Rockarchive Gallery.
