About
For millennia, nirvana has been a term associated with belief systems of the Indian subcontinent. But in 1988, a band from a small coastal town in Washington state decided to create somenewassociations with this word . . . through their music.
Active for just six years, Nirvana left an indelible mark on the late twentieth century that remains visible today. Photographer and self-described music fanatic Charles Peterson, a fellow twenty-something from the suburbs of Seattle, was present with his camera as a genre took form, and his images have become synonymous with the sounds, styles, movement and attitude known as Grunge.
Charles Petersons Nirvanaexpands beyond Petersons iconic images of the band seen repeatedly over the last thirty years. Over a five-year photo edit, Peterson looked at each one of thousands of frames, considering what drew him to Nirvana in the first placetheir music.
