Stevie Nicks’ 24 Karat Gold Photo Exhibit Visits Morrison Hotel

Rock Icon Stevie Nicks Debuts Her Photographic Exhibit
24 Karat Gold at Morrison Hotel Gallery in NYC

On October 10th Morrison Hotel Gallery will unveil a fascinating and seldom seen facet of Stevie Nicks’ creativity – her photography. Stevie’s Morrison Hotel Gallery exhibit, 24 Karat Gold, is a journey into the private world of the rock legend through never before seen self-portraits from her personal Polaroid collection taken between 1975 and 1987.

Coinciding with the October 7th release of Stevie Nicks’ new album 24 Karat Gold – Songs From the Vault and the upcoming tour with the fully reunited Fleetwood Mac, Morrison Hotel Gallery will debut Stevie’s 24 Karat Gold photographic exhibit on October 10th & 11th at a special larger venue in Soho to accommodate Stevie’s prolific fan base at 201 Mulberry Street, then moving on October 13th to Morrison Hotel Gallery Loft at 116 Prince Street for the month of October.

As an artist, Stevie Nicks has the rare ability to capture the complex emotionality of life thru music and self-portraiture. Her vision is so well formed it transcends mediums. Her photography exudes the same realness and rich spectrum of feelings as her music. It’s by turns vulnerable, sensual, introspective, and always authentic. These stunning pictures also capture the breezy elegance of the 1970s California time period and the heyday of what many term rock music’s greatest era.

Morrison Hotel Gallery’s creatively fertile atmosphere of lively debate makes it the ideal environment for Stevie to explore her fluid artistry publicly as a photographer. 24 Karat Gold is curated by rock legend Dave Stewart, who is not only known for his work with the Eurythmics, Super Heavy (with Mick Jagger), and Stevie Nicks, but is also a sage cultural commentator. His insights, along with commentary from MHG co-founder Peter Blachley and Stevie Nicks herself enrich the exhibition with recollections and intriguing dialogue.
