Bruce and Sacha Lecca, senior photo editor at Rolling Stone magazine, will moderate a slideshow and discussion of Bruce's work.
“This exhibit is the story of a young man who took a work study job at his university and ran with it—” says curator Anna Van Lenten, “—ran to Atlanta Pop, to Atlantic City, to Woodstock, to Bob Dylan and The Band on tour—and in between, Miami, to catch Jim Morrison on trial in 1970 for obscenity charges. Then he put his negatives in a box for 35 years. Now, we get to unearth those negatives and hear what Bruce has to tell us about his encounters."
