THE NEW YORK
YEARS

From the One to On concert at Madison Square Garden to Lennon's return to New York from his "Lost Weekend," from the birth of Sean Lennon to recording sessions for Lennon's last album, Double Fantasy, the images from their decade of friendship, some of which have never before been seen, fill the galleries of this exhibition.

JOSHUA TREE
Anton Corbijn spent a week traveling the Mojave Desert, looking for the perfect location. Over several days in late 1986, the band and Anton traveled the American Southwest in a bus, staying in small hotels along the way. They started in Reno, NV and went through Bodie, Twentynine Palms and all around (and in) Death Valley. Corbjin was struck by the Joshua Trees and told the band of the story of the trees name. Bono liked the origin of the tree’s name and its religious significance (early settlers named the plant after the Old Testament prophet Joshua, as the tree’s stretching branches reminded them of Joshua raising his hands in prayer). The rest is history.
DISCO
These shots capture the very essence of what going out was, is, and should be, all about. They showed the true democracy of the dance floor where anyone could be a star, as long as they had the right attitude and flair. The images in this show are a document of an incredibly exciting and creative time, not only in music, but also in social, political and fashion history too. All the photographs featured were shot by Bernstein. Manhattan was the epicenter of disco and Bill Bernstein captured it all.
