Anton Corbijn’s unmistakable visual signature has powerfully shaped the language of contemporary music and culture. The legendary photographer’s major retrospective, Corbijn, Anton, travels through five creative decades of his career – each frame steeped in the artist’s characteristic twilight, inhabited by someone who truly matters.
Featuring over 150 works, the exhibition opens up an authentic and extraordinary world, where Depeche Mode, David Bowie, U2, Patti Smith, and many others look back at us – figures who have left their mark, and whose mark Corbijn has in turn shaped. The experience is enriched by a video room bringing together Corbijn’s videography and iconic music videos that have defined generations.
Corbijn’s legacy and footprint in music are rock-solid – and this exhibition is a celebration of exactly that.
