Gaga and other rock legends help rock history come alive
How Photography Makes Rock and Roll History Come Alive
Before Lady Gaga was on the cover of Rolling Stone, she was just a girl named Stefani performing in a downtown bar. Captured on the Lower East Side by a New York nightlife photographer, we see her pre-rockstar pout in this week’s Moving Image photo essay in Huffington. The essay is a curated collection of rare rock images from Rock Paper Photo, an online fine art gallery full of moments in rock history that most haven’t seen before.
A blend of outtakes from iconic photo shoots and performance candids, Rock Paper Photo pictures are the stop-stare-and-daydream shots that are discovered through Halpern's knack for unearthing gems from the photo archives of any photographer who will grant him access to their image storage. According to Halpern, most photographers tell him, “I have about a million negative in boxes under my bed. I haven’t looked at them in 30 plus years.”
