Artist | Bill Wyman

One of music's most celebrated bassists, Bill Wyman is internationally renowned for his stellar playing and instantly recognizable by virtue of his thirty years as a member of one of the universe's most celebrated and photographed bands - The Rolling Stones. Not as widely known is that Wyman is himself an extremely accomplished fine art photographer who has practiced the art for well over four decades. While a fraction of Wyman's remarkable work has been seen in the five acclaimed books he's authored since 1990, it has never been exhibited - until now.

Born in London, England in 1936, Bill Wyman began his thirty-year stint with the Rolling Stones in 1962, helping to build their reputation as "the world's greatest rock and roll band" as one-half of the group's legendary "straightest rhythm section in rock" alongside drummer Charlie Watts. Wyman has also released several acclaimed solo albums over the years including Monkey Grip and Stone Alone - also the name of his autobiography - as well as the hit single "(Si Si) Je Suis Un Rockstar." In the '80s he formed the all-star "cover" band Willie and the Poorboys, and for the last decade, Wyman has recorded and toured with his current stellar band The Rhythm Kings. Wyman's 2002 book Rolling With The Stones recounted his experiences with the group and was lavishly illustrated with many of his one-of-a-kind photographs.

Bill Wyman's career behind the camera lens has paralleled his storied life behind the bass for over half his time on earth. As a world famous participant in contemporary pop culture history, Wyman's perspective is extraordinary - as an observer and recorder of it through his photographic art, his vision is one for the ages.
