Q – the UK’s biggest selling monthly music magazine – will be celebrating 25 years of iconic photography with it’s first major photo exhibition, to be held from the 7th-9th of October at Red Bull Studios, Tooley Street in London.
The exhibition is the latest event to mark the 25th anniversary of Q , a magazine which has shaped and influenced the UK music scene for two and a half decades. Every significant act to have emerged in that time – from U2 to Adele, Oasis to Rihanna, Radiohead to Laura Marling, Jay-Z to Florence And The Machine, and countless more besides – has graced the magazine’s hallowed cover and here for the first time some of that imagery will be exhibited.
Q is one of the world’s most influential music brands – communicating to and engaging with more than a million music fans every day. The iconic Q magazine sits at the heart of the brand and is connected to a 360-degree service that encompasses online, social media, radio, TV and live events, with each dedicated to discovering great new music and bringing unparalleled access and insight in the people making it.
Q Editor In Chief Paul Rees says: “Throughout its history Q has photographed the biggest and most exciting people in music – and has always strived to create indelible images that encapsulate the essence of them. We are rightly proud of the many outstanding photographers who have worked for Q and of the results of their labours. The Icons exhibition is the perfect stage from which to celebrate their great work.”
