Sat 17 Jul - Sat 28 Aug Part of Quay Arts’ Heritage Season

Sat, 17 Jul 2010 - Sat, 28 Aug 2010

As a model, actress and ‘it-girl’ of the 1970s, (as well as the daughter of Michael and Christine West) Carinthia ‘hung out’ with some of the world’s most respected musicians and performers, taking photographs on her single reflex Canon camera, experimenting with different types of film. Many of her subjects were also her close friends at the time, and include David Bowie, Dame Helen Mirren, Eric Idle, Carly Simon, James Taylor, to mention a few. For this tongue-in-cheek and anecdotal exhibition she has chosen portraits of Mick Jagger, Ronnie Wood,
Neil Young, George Harrison, King Hussein of Jordan, and the Pink Floyd pig amongst others.
