Exclusive Grace Slick Giclée by Baron Wolman
As we mentioned the other day, the Rock Art Show has teamed up with legendary rock photographer Baron Wolman (Rolling Stone Magazine’s first chief photographer) to release limited edition 16” x 20” giclées (pronounced "gee-clay") of three of his classic images. (What's a giclée?) Here is the second image of the three. If you can't wait for the rest of the posts, you can check out this special "Rock Art Show - Baron Wolman" page. For now, check out this sexy Grace Slick giclée.
This color Grace Slick picture was taken in 1968, inside Design Research, an upscale furniture and accessory store which used to be located in San Francisco's Ghirardelli Square. At the time, Grace was openly disrespectful of many accepted traditions and would wear her Girl Scout uniform to subtly poke fun at what she felt were pointlessly strict Girl Scout -- and society -- rules. At one moment during the photo session, I caught her looking into a mirror, making faces and reciting the "Scout's Honor." Grace, who these days is an accomplished painter, used this photo as inspiration for her signature self-portrait and the logo image on her website.
