Photography Review: "All Access with Kevin Mazur" at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum
Published March 20, 2008
Through his portraiture, one can see Mazur has a knack for making others comfortable around him, which allows him to capture subtle nuances in facial expressions and honesty in the moment. In a portrait of Ron Wood of the Rolling Stones, the expression on his face is an understated smirk that looks as though he just heard an off-color joke and is trying to keep a straight face.
Among Mazur's other subjects are Rock Hall inductees Van Halen, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, U2, Elton John, and Madonna.
After twenty-five years, Mazur still possesses the same childlike enthusiasm with which he began his career. Coupled with a keen artist’s eye, he has managed to take his childhood dream to the “premier place to be displayed if you are a rock and roll photographer,” the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This is hardly the end of the road for Mazur, as he stated, “When it’s not fun anymore, that’s when I stop… it’s still fun.”
Mazur's first book, All Access with Kevin Mazur, will be published by HarperEntertainment, an imprint of HarperCollins, in 2009.
