Looking through her vast archive of rock music images in 1998, photographer Jill Furmanovsky thought it was a shame that so little of her work could be seen and owned by the people who would appreciate it most, the fans. Jill's vision to make her work and the work of her colleagues more accessable to the public coincided with the digital revolution. Jill began a website called rockarchive.com at the end of 1998. She put up 30 of her classic images from her 30 years as a rock photographer, and decided to print them in an edition of 30 darkroom prints. Edition 30/30/30 was born and become the founding edition for Rockarchive. Collectors please note: A few of these highly prized silver gelatin prints are still available and this may be your last chance to own one. Later this year all 30 of the founding images will form the basis of a touring exhibition as part of a year's celebration.
10 years on and rockarchive now publishes the work of more than 50 photographers and 500 images and the collective continues to grow. ROCK ON ROCKARCHIVE!
