2024 post: Throughout 2024, we're looking back at the 100 year history of art at the Mulvane. This 1968 photograph by Walter Iooss depicts rock legend Jimi Hendrix. Though his career was brief, cut short by his untimely death, Hendrix is widely considered one of the most skilled guitarists and influential musicians of our time. Iooss's photograph captures him in a soulful moment at a live performance, his eyes closed as he sings and plays the electric guitar.
