Charles Peterson’s Nirvana: On Photography and Performance
Charles Peterson’s Nirvana: On Photography and Performance highlights the dynamic energy of Peterson’s black-and-white photographs, which have become synonymous with the sounds, styles, movement, and attitude known as "grunge." The exhibition, based on a book of the same name, expands beyond Peterson’s iconic images seen in album art, books, and magazines for decades. The exhibition has been created by Tacoma Art Museum in collaboration with Seattle-based publishing platform Minor Matters and is curated by Michelle Dunn Marsh.
