A month-long exhibition showcasing work from acclaimed music photographer Steve Gullick comes to Birmingham throughout November.

PHOTOGRAPHS will go on display at Centrala from Fri 7 Nov – Sat 6 Dec. The exhibition showcases a selection of Gullick’s most iconic images, documenting some of the most significant figures in alternative music from the 1990s and beyond.

Gullick began his career with Sounds magazine in 1990, before becoming a defining presence across Melod Maker and NME. Alongside his editorial work, Gullick has also produced album covers and publicity photography for record labels, working closely with era-defining artists like Nirvana, PJ Harvey, Mark Lanegan, Nick Cave, Cat Power, and Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, among many others.

Reflecting on his early creative journey, Gullick says: “Between 1985 & 1987, I used to travel through Birmingham every day on the journey from my home in Coventry to college in Wednesbury, I learned a lot there, had access to great equipment & used it to hone my craft, alas I failed the course on maths… I’m thrilled to be showing my work at Centrala!”

As well as the exhibition, coinciding with the exhibition launch on Fri 7 Nov, Centrala’s downstairs space will be hosting a special gig with Gullick’s musical project Tenebrous LIAR and The Breedling.
