Music + Life

In association with an international touring exhibition and coinciding with what would have been Bob Marley's eightieth birthday, Dennis Morris marks the first full-career retrospective for this groundbreaking photographer.

Dennis Morris: Music + Life is the first in-depth career retrospective of the trailblazing photographer, designer, and art director. Although Dennis Morris is celebrated for his iconic portraits of reggae superstar Bob Marley, this monograph also shines a light on Morris's documentary work, which explores questions of race and cultural identity as it draws on his experiences as a Black teenager in 1970s Britain. Supported by an international touring exhibition, Dennis Morris unveils a trove of previously unseen images, offering new insight into the image-maker's visual language.

Jamaican-born Morris moved to East London when he was just five years old.
