Steve Joester is a British born photographer & mixed
media artist, now working and living in New York City.
Joester was a leading rock & roll photographer in
the 70's and 80's. His iconic images of the greatest rock performers,
Bob Marley, The Stones, Neil Young, The Clash, Queen and many more
rock giants have appeared on album sleeves, posters, in exhibitions
and leading magazines around the world.
" I loved working in the 'pit', the band is right
in your face and I could capture the raw energy of the live performance
that is the essence of rock and roll."
In an explosive interpretation of the rock icons that
left their indelible mark on our generation, Joester's mixed media
works transcend his photography. using an unconventional mix of materials
on his canvases, Joester invigorates the energy of rock and roll in
the raw with his own interpretation of the emotion and power of live
performance.
Joester was the first mixed media artist to be represented
by 'The Morrison Hotel Gallery, opening their Bowery Gallery with a
solo show. His work is in collections around the U.S and Europe.
