In conjunction with the Montreal International Jazz Festival, Joyce Yahouda Gallery welcomes the New York-based photographer Hank O’Neal, to present The Golden Age of Jazz, a photography exhibition linked to the international world of jazz. Considered one of the major photographers in the United States by The New York Times magazine in 2003, O’Neal has also been a music producer for 40 years, and specializes in jazz. He is currently director of the Jazz Foundation of America. ‘’ I took my first photograph of a jazz/blues musician in January 1964 (Mississippi John Hurt) and my most recent in March 2015 (new MacArthur winner, Steve Coleman). In between there have been thousands of others. What makes so many of these photographs unique is that almost without exception, every photograph from the late 1960s until today were taken at events, concerts, recordings or festivals I produced. I was very fortunate in that I was present at many wonderful gatherings of the finest jazz musicians of the second half of the 20th Century, a time many would say was the golden age of jazz. ‘’ (Hank O’Neal)
