IRIS Nights : Matthew Rolston and Merle Ginsberg (6/30)


Los Angeles native Matthew Rolston’s photography career began at Interview magazine where he was discovered by Andy Warhol. Since then, he has photographed for magazines like Rolling Stone, Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, W and many others. Rolston has also directed films, music videos and television commercials.

Rolston will present numerous examples of his work, both in still photography and the moving image, and will engage in a lively discussion of his thoughts, philosophy and practices in regard to beauty and photography. Rolston believes that true beauty really comes from an inner light. The intersection of beauty and light are his main areas of creative interest.

Merle Ginsberg is a journalist/writer and editor known for her writing in the fields of fashion, entertainment, beauty, design and both high and pop culture. Currently, she is a Senior Writer at The Hollywood Reporter magazine, where she pens the weekly column, "Rambling Reporter." She is also editor of the fashion blog Fashionrules.com.


Both will speak at next week's IRIS Nights @ Annenberg Space for Photography in Century City. The event is free and passes are released this Wednesday (22nd) at noon as well as Thursday (23rd) at 9:30 am. These passes go fast so if you can't get it in time, there's always a stand-by line that opens up 10 minutes before the event starts. Get passes here.
