SNAP SHOT | WA MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY FROM THE ARCHIVES

SHOWN IN THREE LOCATIONS:

Main Foyer Ground Floor, State Library of WA (all day).
Northbridge Piazza screen (screening at intermittent times day and night).
Art Space Collective, 88 Scarborough Beach Road, Scarborough (daily).

Snap Shot is a collection of images representing the evolution of music and the scene around it over the past 100 or so years. The exhibition pays tribute to artists, audiences and places central to music, showcasing the diversity and legacy of the scene in WA. The images have been drawn from many sources – the collections of WAM and the State Library, private collections, and the hard drives (and filing cabinets!) of many working photographers.

It also comes with a cracking soundtrack, which has been curated by a number of WA music industry icons, such as San Cisco, Dulcie, Dom Mariani and Grace Barbé.

This year, Snap Shot features an incredible collection of images from iconic music photographer, Tony Mott. Tony is recognised as Australia’s premier rock photographer. Tony’s photographic career began in 1983 after going to see The Divinyls. One of the photos he took that night was chosen for a tour poster, and then bands began approaching Mott to shoot their gigs. Tony’s photos have appeared on the covers of music magazines and album covers. Tony has also published several books. www.tonymott.com.

Snap Shot: WA Music Photography from the Archives is presented by WAM, in partnership with the State Library of Western Australia and we offer our thanks and applause to each of the photographers behind all of these incredible images.
