Nearly 60 years after The Beatles performed their final concert at Candlestick Park, Beatlemania is back in the Bay 🎸 We are so excited to announce that “Paul McCartney Photographs 1963–64: Eyes of the Storm” will be coming to the de Young! “Eyes of the Storm” will present more than 250 personal photos by Paul McCartney, along with video clips and archival materials. These images capture a period from December 1963 through February 1964 when The Beatles performed in concert halls across England and toured in the United States. McCartney’s images reveal the intensity of life on tour and highlight the humor and individuality of the band members on their days off, offering a behind-the-scenes look into the meteoric rise of the world’s most celebrated band. “Paul McCartney Photographs 1963–64: Eyes of the Storm,” is organized by the @nationalportraitgallery and opens at the de Young, March 1, 2025 through July 6, 2025. https://lnkd.in/ec9YUekn See The Beatles as you never have before, but as they were through the eyes of Paul McCartney.

Turn on, tune in, drop out. Michael Rozendal, an associate professor in the Rhetoric and Language department at the University of San Francisco, talks about San Francisco’s Summer of Love: the liberation and disillusionment. And the hopefulness that can be felt in Irving Penn’s portraits from the summer of 1967. Penn made a series of photographs for "Look" magazine of people participating in San Francisco's Summer of Love. He photographed everyone from hippies and avant-garde dancers to Hells Angels and rock bands. Penn wanted to memorialize the epicenter of the counterculture movement on film and "look into the faces of these new San Francisco people.” See these portraits of San Francisco history for yourself in “Irving Penn,” on view through July 21. Can you guess where Penn's studio was located during the Summer of Love? Hint: It wasn't in San Francisco! #IrvingPenn #SummerOfLove #SanFrancisco #Hippie #Photography
