As NME’s chief photographer throughout the 1980s and ’90s, Cummins helped define the visual identity of seminal Manchester bands including Joy Division and The Smiths. His work with Oasis came at a pivotal time, not only documenting their rise but also helping craft their public image.
Cummins will be at Musichead Gallery to open the exhibition and host an artist talk and signing for his newly released photo book Oasis: The Masterplan. The publication offers an inside look at the band’s early image-making process, capturing the raw spirit of Oasis at the edge of superstardom.
Photographs from the exhibition, signed copies of Oasis: The Masterplan, the limited-edition exhibition poster (Oasis: Be Here Now, only 500 printed), and select vinyl will be available for purchase.
The exhibition’s title, Be Here Now, evokes more than a nod to the band’s third album. It is an invitation for fans to reflect on the roots of Oasis’ enduring cultural impact. As the group reunites for the first time in over 15 years, this exhibition offers an opportunity to revisit the creative spark that made it all possible.
