Hi Kimmer,

I'm glad to inform you that this year I will be part of Sydney Fringe from the 7th to the 30th of September with my exhibition Rock and Roll Shots.Rock and Roll Shots is an exhibition of international music photographs including portraits, band shots and concerts photos.

A large portion was commissioned by record companies, magazines, and the artists themselves. The rest is personal work. The exhibition will be hosted by the Green Room Lounge on Enmore road, Enmore. You'll find a media kit attached to this email with all the information about the event but don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions and need photos.

Best regards,

Emmy

Rock and Roll Shots

French-born Emmy Etié, music photographer, brings her exhibition Rock and Roll Shots to the 2012 Sydney Fringe Festival from 7 to 30 September. The exhibition at Enmore’s Green Room Lounge showcases both Etié’s live and portrait work and features more than 50 images of rock luminaries including: Iggy and the Stooges; Deniz Tek; The Hoodoo Gurus; Frank Black, The Hives and the White Stripes.

Etié enrolled in photography at Paris’ Gobelins l'École de l'Image , a professional school specialising in advertising photography. She pursued her love of music photography whilst studying, becoming a fixture in the Parisian music scene and a favourite with music promoters who invited her to cover tours from acts including: The Hives; The White Stripes; The Libertines, The Vines and The Mars Volta. Commissioned work from bands, record labels and music press (Rolling Stone France, Crossroads, Rock Sound and Rock One) soon followed.

In 2007, Etié collated her favourite images to create Rock and Roll Shots an exhibition which toured France in 2007-2008 and now debuts in Australia at the very cool Sydney Fringe Festival.

Etié now lives in Sydney and very excited to present Rock and Roll Shots to her new hometown. The images in the exhibition have updated to include recent local work as part of the 2012 Sydney Fringe Festival.



“I am so happy to bring this exhibition to Australia and very pleased to be part of the Sydney Fringe Festival. Some of my favourite photos in this exhibition were shot during my sojourns to Sydney and it will be fantastic to share them with music and photography fans during the Festival.” Says Etié.

“If you are out at a gig and you see Emmy, you’ll know when she’s going to get her camera out. You see the dawning of the idea come over her face first. It is only then she starts examining the angles and the ambient light. She hunts down the spot; the perfect spot. A hunter by trade, she works her way into position and waits.

She doesn’t fire off a million shots and hope for the best. She waits for that perfect twenty fifth of a second. (YAY) But don’t take my word for it. Just look at her work. Have you seen that photo of Joan Jett caught mid wink? Genius.

If a picture paints a thousand words, she had me hopelessly outgunned already. Emmy chooses nothing except the best thousand words,” says musician Bob Short.
