Rock/Roll Perspective

Last year, close to 1,000 people attended a rock 'n' roll photo show featuring the work of local photographers Joe Kleon and Anastasia Pantsios at the Loftworks Gallery. The duo will return to the gallery this weekend, with a new exhibit that opens with a reception tonight from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., and closes on Sunday. This second installment of Rock/Roll Perspective features more concert photos and additional behind-the-scenes and backstage shots. Pantsios started shooting concerts in Cleveland in the 1970s; most of her photos were taken from 1975 to 1989. Kleon, a Scene contributor, has been shooting for the past 15 years, during which he has captured more than 1,000 concerts, shooting an average of 100 concerts a year. He is also the official photographer for local acts such as Michael Stanley and Wish You Were Here. More than 200 photos will be on display at the gallery, with additional prints available for purchase in the biggest offering yet from these two photographers. Local reggae singer-songwriter Carlos Jones will perform from 5 to 7 p.m. tomorrow, and classic rockers Eroc & Jim, members of Wish You Were Here, will perform from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday. Gallery hours are 2 to 8 p.m. tomorrow and from noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday. (Niesel)
