Lauren Lyons: A Bender of Fiction

Quogue Gallery is pleased to present “Lauren Lyons: A Bender of Fiction.” Lyons is a self-taught photographer who got her start decades ago photographing musicians in Philadelphia and New York City. Over the years, she shot album covers, promotional photos, concerts, and festivals and worked with record labels, magazines, concert promoters, A&R scouts, and advertising agencies. While making a living as a rock and roll photographer, she quietly pursued her passion of photographing highly stylized photo shoots which she conceptualized and styled herself. This exhibition features 12 prized photographs from this series of work, most of which were shot about twenty years ago. This is the first time these photographs have been exhibited formally together in a gallery and they represent the launching point for her work going forward.
