About the project

May 10 through August 10, 2012

The exhibition Rock and Roll Icons: Photographs by Patrick Harbron, created by the Performing Arts Museum, was taken from Harbron’s rock and roll concert and portrait photography of influential musicians and groups of the 1970’s and 1980’s at pivotal moments in their careers. Many of the photographs had never been published or exhibited. Harbron photographed artists such as Elvis Costello, Blondie and Deborah Harry, The Cars, Rush, Stevie Ray Vaughn, The Police, Tom Petty, Prince, Bruce Springsteen, KD Lang, Dire Straits and Van Halen early in their careers. He followed these artists to prominence and others that were already well known including The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Ray Charles, Eric Clapton, David Bowie, Queen, Neil Young, Bob Marley, The Who, Genesis, Elton John, KISS, U2,  Aerosmith, Santana, Michael Jackson and Ray Charles.
