"Woodstock retrospective" and "Sharing stillness: A healing energy session" with Elliott Landy

About Elliott Landy

Elliott Landy, born in 1942, began photographing the anti-Vietnam war movement and the underground music culture in New York City in 1967. His photos of Bob Dylan, the Band, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Van Morrison, and many others documented the music scene during theclassic rock and roll period that culminated with the 1969 Woodstock Festival, of which he was the official photographer.

The ideals of both personal and social freedom and the spirituality expressed by the Woodstock generation are reflected in his later work with flowers (combining elements of impressionist painting with photography) and in the spiritual and artistic depth of his photo verite series, which lovingly captures personal relationships between mothers and babies.

Elliott's photographs have been featured on the covers of Rolling Stone, Life, and The Saturday Evening Post and been published worldwide on album covers and in magazines, books, calendars, and cards for more than 35 years.

He has published Woodstock Vision, The Spirit of A Generation, in book and CD-ROM format, and authored the book Woodstock 69, the First Festival. He is currently publishing a series of limited-edition lithographs of his classic rock photographs.

Elliott is also a healer and will share his experiences in a workshop during the AUM.
