Bruce Springsteen: A Photographic Journey, a traveling photo exhibit curated by the GRAMMY Museum® at L.A. LIVE, will open in Los Angeles on Thursday, May 26. The exhibition features more than 40 iconic images of Bruce Springsteen.
On display for one month only through Sunday, June 19, the exhibit serves to document a great American music legend, and will feature photos taken by noted Springsteen photographers Danny Clinch, Ed Gallucci, Eric Meola, Pamela Springsteen and Frank Stefanko.
“This exhibit defines the career of Bruce Springsteen in an entirely new light, as captured by these five incredible photographers,” said GRAMMY Museum Executive Director Bob Santelli. “Each of these photographers was able to artfully document Bruce’s world, at different stages in his career. We are honored to partner with each of them in order to help tell the story of one of the most important figures in American music.”
While the majority of the exhibit focuses on Springsteen offstage, four additional live performance photographs, shot by Barry Schneier, will be showcased. These photos were shot during the now-famous Springsteen concert at Harvard Square Theater where famed Rolling Stone music journalist Jon Landau claimed, “I have seen the future of rock and roll, and its name is Bruce Springsteen.”
Additionally, the exhibit will feature video interviews with each of the photographers, produced by the GRAMMY Museum.
Bruce Springsteen: A Photographic Journey will be on display on the GRAMMY Museum’s second floor throughJune 19, 2016. The exhibit was previously on display at the Woody Guthrie Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Monmouth University in Long Branch, New Jersey.
