Exhibit History:
An esteemed client of Dickerman Prints, Baron Wolman graciously allowed Seth Dickerman his choice of images to print for this show. The negatives were rescanned and digitally retouched to breath new life, heart and soul into the photos before being printed on the lab's state-of-the-art equipment. While some of these images have been seen over the years, even Baron agrees that the images on display are sharper, more vibrant and have never looked better!

About Baron Wolman:
Baron Wolman is among the giants in rock photography. His career commenced with the dawn of Rolling Stone magazine when he and founder Jann Wenner together traipsed the streets of San Francisco, commenting on and capturing the changing musical and cultural tides. Back then, photographers had access. Well before the days of being relegated to shooting in the pit for the first two songs of a set, photographers like Wolman accompanied their subjects into the trenches, onto the stages that launched them and behind the closed doors that kept their human moments shielded from a public that personally lauded and defined their icons.

Baron Wolman has a large catalog of photography, with artists including Janis Joplin, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, the Grateful Dead, Jeff Beck, Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa, and the Who, many shot in their early, formative years. Stylistically, his shots range from George Harrison caught in a quiet, pensive moment reading a paperback, to Jimi Hendrix flaunting the smoldering charisma that made him a superstar.
