Scott Hicks

For a strictly limited season, international film director Scott Hicks presents ‘Behind the Velvet Rope’, a series of black and white images of music greats from the ‘70s + ‘80s.

'It is a pleasure to share these images of everlasting ephemera, now digitally expressed on a scale befitting these ‘Gigantosaurs' of pop culture, while retaining the tactile intimacy of their celluloid origins.'
- Scott Hicks
