Krátky popis
In 1966, during a brief stint as a receptionist for Town and
Country magazine, Linda Eastman snagged a press pass to a very
exclusive promotional event for the Rolling Stones aboard a yacht
on the Hudson River, her fresh, candid photographs of the band were
far superior to the formal shots made by the band’s official
photographer, and she was instantly on the way to making a name for
herself as a top rock ’n’ roll photographer. In May 1968, with her
portrait of Eric Clapton, she entered the record books as the first
female photographer to have her work featured on the cover of
Rolling Stone. During her tenure as the leading photographer of the
late 1960s’ musical scene, she captured many of rock’s most
important musicians on film, including Aretha Franklin, Jimi
Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Simon &,amp, Garfunkel, The
Who, The Doors, and the Grateful Dead. In 1967, Linda went to
London to document the ",Swinging Sixties,", where she met Paul
McCartney at the Bag ’O Nails club and subsequently photographed
The Beatles during a launch event for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely
Hearts Club Band album. Paul and Linda fell in love, and were
married on March 12, 1969. For the next three decades, until her
untimely death, she devoted herself to her family, vegetarianism,
animal rights, and photography. From her early rock ’n’ roll
portraits, through the final years of The Beatles, via touring with
Wings to raising four children with Paul, Linda captured her whole
world on film. Her shots range from spontaneous family pictures to
studio sessions with Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson, as well as
artists Willem de Kooning and Gilbert and George. Always unassuming
and fresh, her work displays a warmth and feeling for the precise
moment that captures the essence of any subject. Whether
photographing her children, celebrities, animals, or a fleeting
moment of everyday life, she did so without pretension or artifice.
This retrospective volume—selected from her archive of over 200,000
images—is produced in close collaboration with Paul McCartney and
their children. As such, it is a moving personal journal and a
lasting testament to Linda’s talent.
