  • Pioneertown Motel 5240 Curtis Road Pioneertown, California, 92268 United States (map)

A conversation about the relationship between photography, music, and the art of creating books, featuring photographers Danny Clinch and Henry Diltz alongside publisher Matt French.

Drawing on their experiences documenting musicians and the creative culture surrounding them, the speakers will explore how photography captures the spirit of an artist, how images acquire meaning over time, and the process of turning photographic archives into published works.

The discussion will also consider the enduring connections between music, photography, Joshua Tree, and the mythology of the American West, including the influence of Gram Parsons.
