Ruby Mazur: The Artist Who Gave Rock Its Face

From the iconic “Mouth & Tongue”, which was originally used on the Rolling Stones "Tumbling Dice" record sleeve, to decades of loud, unapologetic pop art, Ruby Mazur helped define the visual language of rock and roll. His work didn’t just complement the music—it amplified it. Every brushstroke carried the energy of a guitar solo and the chaos of a live crowd.

Elliot Landy: The Eye of the Woodstock Generation

Elliott Landy was one of the first photographers to treat music photography as fine art — and the world followed. His iconic portraits of Bob Dylan (Nashville Skyline), The Band (Music From Big Pink, The Band), Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Van Morrison (Moondance), and Jim Morrison helped shape the visual identity of some of the most important records of the 20th century. As the official photographer of the 1969 Woodstock Festival, his work became inseparable from the ideals of the era — peace, rebellion, and raw creative freedom.
