Bob Gruen Portrait Photography

American, b. 1945
Bob Gruen is one of the most well-known and respected photographers in rock and roll. From John Lennon to Johnny Rotten; Muddy Waters to the Rolling Stones; Elvis to Madonna; Bob Dylan to Bob Marley; Tina Turner to Debbie Harry, he has captured the music scene for over forty years in photographs that have gained worldwide recognition. Bob understood my studio the day he walked in. He has embraced the different ways in which the process of silkscreen can introduce variation and he's not afraid to take risks.
