Musikmesse Frankfurt 2015
In the Eye of the Rock’n’Roll Hurricane
The Lightpower Collection as a highlight of Musikmesse 2015 Frankfurt
On more than 1000m2, more than 60 large-format works by Neal Preston were exhibited in an elaborate staging
More than 12,000 visitors visited the exhibition
The images were the magnet of the exhibition, but the stories behind them, the multimedia biography of the artist himself (The Neal Preston Experience) and the accompanying live performance by the 16-year-old British guitar talent Edward Christie Bennett made the exhibition a holistic experience. The number of young visitors and their reactions was particularly positive.
Neal Preston, who was on site for the entire time, gave about 30 interviews to domestic and foreign media representatives and signed more than 1000 books, posters and exhibition catalogues. In addition, we were able to welcome like Tony Iommi and Marco Mendoza, prominent artists that Neal also had in front of his lens.
The audience response was simply overwhelming. Many of the visitors came back a second time and some fans didn’t want to leave.
“Behind the Scenes” is happy to receive donations
The “Behind the Scenes” foundation has already received a check for $50,000, which was presented at the grand opening. After the great success of the exhibition and the demand for fine art prints and books and planned further exhibitions worldwide, this donation will certainly soon be followed by others.
Above all, a big thank you goes to the partners and sponsors involved:
Without them, the whole thing could not have been realized.
