Occupation Dreamer: The Photography of Moshe Brakha (5/14)






"Occupation Dreamer is how I saw myself during the 1970s and the 1980s, when I was friends and neighbors with many of the most popular punk and garage bands in Los Angeles. I knew punk music from the day it was born — it was the music of my generation, and I was fortunate enough to have played a part during this period. Many of the musicians and bands I photographed back then were penniless and unknowns — they, too, were 'Occupation Dreamers.' My job was to capture an era of music that was part of my soul — punk."

The exhibition starts this Thursday over in Downtown LA at the Grammy Museum @ LA Live and runs May 14th - Aug. 9, 2009. $14.95
