This selling show will be the first major photographic exhibition in St Jamess, usually associated with more traditional art, and will celebrate this phenomenal artistic achievement. We will show over 100 of Terry ONeills pictures, juxtaposing classic images with lesser-known, more intimate portraits and those new to the public eye. Subjects will include Sean Connery, Luciano Pavarotti, Audrey Hepburn, David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Jerry Hall, Clint Eastwood, Tina Turner, Orson Welles, Janis Joplin, Elton John, Faye Dunaway, Michelle Pfeiffer, Elizabeth Taylor, Robert DeNiro and many more. The centrepieces of the show will be two breathtaking 6 x 4 foot prints of Mohammad Ali training and Frank Sinatra performing. Offering a fascinating insight into the lives of two icons, they are comprised of blown up contact sheets, showing a sequence of images as each superstar prepares, performs and then relaxes.
