Artist | Rob Bosboom
| Biography | After Dutch photographer Rob Bosboom graduated from the School of Photography, he worked several years as an assistant for the well known Dutch photographers Maria Austria and Henk Jonker. During the sixties Bosboom was one of the first Dutch photographers to photograph visiting foreign musicians. Many photos were published in music magazines like Muziek Express and used on record covers. From the early sixties to 1973 Bosboom photographed, amongst others, The Who, Cream, The Yardbirds, Chuck Berry, The Doors, Sonny & Cher, The Bee Gees, The Pretty Things and lots of Dutch artists. He was the only Dutch photographer who was onstage at the Jimi Hendrix concert in Rotterdam in 1967, a concert that turned out to be the only concert Hendrix ever gave in the Netherlands. Furthermore Bosboom is responsible for documenting the famous Rolling Stones concert at the Kurhaus in The Hague (the Netherlands) in 1964 that ended only 7 minutes after it started because fans climbed on stage and prevented them from playing on. This is Bosboom’s debut exhibition in the U.S. |
