Bob Dylan, De Kuip, Rotterdam, 1978. C-print on Fujifilm Fine Art paper, signed and blind stamped. Size: 30 x 40cm. Edition 6/200. Shipped carefully packed. Yet another rock 'n roll = war situation. 50,000 people not willing to get one inch out of the way for me. Halfway into the concert, I was finally close enough to the stage to be able to take some pictures using a tripod and a telephoto lens. The concert was in the afternoon, but fortunately there was a nice lightshow and Mr Dylan had been to make-up. Gijsbert Hanekroot (Brussels, 1945) began his career in 1969 and worked for magazines and newspapers in the 1970s. His career as a photojournalist fit perfectly with the explosion of the rock scene. He masterfully documented the golden age of music history and photographed many of the greatest icons of the era. Hanekroot strove to capture images that revealed the person behind the musician. This resulted in portraits that are natural and intimate, relaxed and sincere. And in dazzling concert photographs. The photographer is represented by Blitz Gallery, Tokyo, Blue Lotus Gallery, Hong Kong, Mondo Galeria, Madrid, Proud Galleries, London and ONO-Arte, Bologna, among others.
