Mick Rock: Exposed

A new, small format edition of the acclaimed rock photographer's definitive collection Mick Rock is the foremost rock photographer of his generation. Here, he reveals his definitive collection of images, telling the story in his own words of his early career and the larger-than-life characters with whom he mixed, from Bowie to Pharrell, Deborah Harry to Karen O. As well as being a retrospective of his work, it is a cultural journey through a time when rock ruled. It is a compendium of experiences, eyewitness accounts, and intimate detail, all culminating in candid incidental visual insights and time-tested iconic imagery that we all recognize today. This is a vivid and memorable account of Rock's adventures behind the camera, a colorful blend of the overt and the intimate, the beautiful, and the irreverent truly exposed.

Mick Rock's career was launched when he photographed an almost unknown David Bowie in 1972. The two established an instant rapport and Rock went on to direct several of his music videos. His reputation as "the man who shot the 70s" was cemented with iconic images of Lou Reed, Syd Barrett, Iggy Pop, Queen, the Sex Pistols, the Ramones, and Blondie. His other collections include Blood and Glitter, Classic Queen, Glam! An Eyewitness Account, and Iggy & the Stooges: Raw Power. He lives in New York City. Tom Stoppard is an Academy Award-winning and Tony Award-winning playwright. Andrew Loog Oldam is a record producer, the former manager and producer of the Rolling Stones, and a daily host on Underground Garage on Sirius.
