Phillip Townsend
The Rolling Stones II - black and white photography

1963

About the Item

This photo was taken a few minutes before the Stones appeared on 'Thank Your Lucky Stars' at ATV studios in Birmingham in 1963. This was their first TV appearance and Phillip caught the moment of them having. a short cigarette break just before going in. This photo was exhibited in a solo show Phillip had at Minotaure Gallery in Tel Aviv in 2013. It is part of an edition of 25. As the Sixties swung and Britain subverted the old order, photographer Philip Townsend was there to record all the prime people of the time, beautiful and ugly alike: the debs and their beaux, louche lords and club owners, press barons and business moguls, stars and socialites, artists and creatives, royals and ruffians, and above all the new aristocrats of pop and rock, spearheaded by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. And he documented the peacock gear they wore, the sleek cars they drove, and the aeroplanes that flew them to fresh horizons. The rolling stones black and white photography celebrity photography

  • Division - color photography
    Located in New York, NY
    This beautiful photograph is part of the "Water Geomaids" series which consists of 13 different images. It comes signed and numbered and is part of an edition of 12. We also offer other available sizes for these images (please contract us for more information). It will be shipped in a tube although we also offer some framing options in the US. The unseen need not be lost. Looking past the obvious and focusing on the lesser-known perspective introduces a parallel universe. Through using domestic objects and the human form in our environment, I work to orchestrate unique visions that are meticulously balanced in the ultimate pursuit of equilibrium. My goal is to inspire all those who see my work to begin looking at the world around them in a new way, evolving their view to uncover the undiscovered beauty in everyday things. color photography staged photography seascape photography pool photography
