His iconic photography of David Bowie as Aladdin Sane 1973, has become one of the most celebrated images of our times, and has been described as the “Mona Lisa of Pop” photograph
Gered Mankowitz has been photographing the rock world for over 40 years. After leaving school at 15 and with no formal qualifications he began his photographic career.

Well known for his striking and intimate images of Jimi Hendrix, The Slade and The Rolling Stones, the gallery holds a series of his Iconic sitting with Jimi Hendrix and The Experience at Mason’s Yard, London 1967.
Sheila Rock’s fascinating photographs of punk, document the scene in its thrilling infancy. Rock was invited to see the Patti Smith Group’s now legendary performance at the Roundhouse in May 1976 and introduced to punk group Clash, who were playing a few months later at the ICA. Intrigued, Rock went along with her camera and started snapping.
