Lucie Foundation Member Greg Watermann celebrates the opening of a new show entitled “I Photograph Rock Stars”. The exhibit takes a walk through Watermann’s career, ranging from early portraits of Julia Roberts to more recent portraits of Ozzy. Unpublished and unseen treats will be unveiled for the first time, including the outtakes from Nirvana’s first magazine shoot for the cover of Spin Magazine and the debut of a new multi-media presentation documenting System Of A Down’s last concert with hundreds of live photos cut to music. Exhibit books, prints and posters will be sold to benefit Nrani, a non-profit organization established in 2003 in Armenia to help provide adequate therapy for children up to eight years old with disabilities.The organization is staffed with a multidisciplinary team of physicians, psychologists, educators, and speech and physical therapists. These experienced professionals provide free therapeutic services to improve the development of cognitive, personal/social, motor and language skills. Nrani also provides counseling and education to help families cope and adapt to their child’s disability.

Greg Watermann is currently one of the top music photographers in the world. Over the years, his unlimited access at concerts has routinely involved him standing on-stage with of some of the biggest names in Rock n’ Roll. This perspective combined with Watermann’s “in the trenches” style gives photography and music fans alike a perspective of really being there and has earned him the rights to photograph such bands as System Of A Down, Linkin Park, Coldplay and Mudvayne.
