The music of the 1960s, 70s, and 80s continues to shape culture today - rediscovered, reinterpreted, and experienced across generations.
A collaboration between renowned photographer Gered Mankowitz and artist Walter Knabe, the collection features iconic portraits captured at defining moments in music history, reimagined through Knabe’s layered, hand-crafted process. Each piece transforms photography into contemporary fine art.
Mankowitz’s photographs capture artists in moments of emergence—authentic, unguarded, and full of energy.
Knabe builds on these moments, translating them through color, texture, and pattern into a new visual language.
This is not reproduction—it is reinterpretation.
Each piece begins with a defining moment and brings it forward through a contemporary lens.
Color becomes energy. Pattern introduces rhythm. Layering creates movement and depth.
The result is work that feels both familiar and newly discovered, reflecting the enduring relevance of these artists today.
