About the Item

Jerry Garcia photograph by Leni Sinclair A standout original photograph of the immortal rock legend Jerry Garcia, which is rich in color and filled with great energy.

Archival Inkjet Print 11 x 14 inches Very good overall condition. Hand signed & notated by Sinclair on the in the margins. Obtained directly from artist. Lot 180 is a primary dealer rep of Leni Sinclair. A recognized leader of the 1960s-70s counter cultural movement in Detroit and a trusted documenter of the rock n’ roll scene of that same era, Leni Sinclair is known for her vivid photographs which captured faithfully the raw drama that unfolded before her lens. What seem, at first glance, to be candid scenes featuring musicians, activists, party goers and demonstrators, read together as a more powerful story: that of an American society where art and politics were inextricably intertwined. _ Shipped flat using protective materials.
