Stamped, signed and dated with printing date "'89" on verso. Blemishes top right margin, covered by mat. Art has undergone conservation to white borders. Presented with off-white archival mat and backing. Image size, 15.38"H x 22.5"W; paper size, 22.38"H x 24.38"W.
Born in the coastal town of Blackpool, England and raised in Salford, near Manchester, Nash picked up a camera before a guitar; he was inspired by his father, an amateur photographer. Taking pictures of his family at age 11 proved life changing for Graham, who has said, "That was the first time I realized that I could see things differently." The guitar and further watershed moments came shortly after when, at age 13, he decided that music was his calling.
As a founding member of The Hollies, and Crosby, Stills & Nash - a band that has been called the "voice of a generation," Graham Nash has made his indelible mark as a music legend. Nash was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice; inducted into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame twice and is a Grammy Award winner. In 2010, he was named Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE). His company's original IRIS 3047 digital printer is now housed in the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution in recognition of his revolutionary accomplishments in the fine arts and digital printing world.
A collection of 150 photographs, shot between 1969 and 2003, can be seen in the book "Eye to Eye: Photographs by Graham Nash" (2004) published by Steidl. The book included images of family, famous friends, unknown subjects and abstract compositions. In 2010, 21st Editions published a monograph titled "Love, Graham Nash," released as a limited edition keepsake (80 copies). It includes facsimiles of his lyrics paired with signed photographs from the 1960s and 1970s by Graham Nash and printed by Nash Editions.
Shows of Nash's photographs include: "Sunlight on Silver" (1990) a show consisting of 35 celebrity portraits, 3 feet by 4 feet each done in editions of 50 prints, for Parco Stores in Tokyo; an exhibit at the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego (2006) - titled "Eye to Eye" after the book; a show of 91 paintings, pastels, and artistically enhanced photographs at Ocean Galleries in Stone Harbor, NJ in 2012; and a recent show at the San Francisco Art Exchange.
Graham Nash released an autobiographical memoir, "Wild Tales: A Rock & Roll Life" in 2013.
Nash has said that what he aims to capture through his lens is, "everyday, ordinary surrealism - the decisive moment." Garrett White, editor of the book version of "Eye To Eye", perhaps put it best when, in his preface, he called the artist, "a man who is fundamentally tuned in to the world…Nash has been blessed with a powerful, elemental curiosity and love of life, a trait that has fared him very well."

Graham Nash
While best known as a founding member of the rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash, and (sometimes) Young, Nash also developed a parallel career as a photographer, collector, and pioneer of digital imaging. Nash's photographs include revealing portraits of family and friends, images of life on the road, still lifes and landscapes, street photographs, bad credit people, and a unique series of self-portraits which often shows him reflected in windows and mirrors. His photography establishes Nash as a masterful visual artist with a keen eye for moments and scenes not immediately available to the common eye. In 2006, fifty years of Graham Nash's photographic images were shown in his first solo museum exhibition, Eye to Eye: Photographs by Graham Nash, at San Diego's Museum of Photographic Arts. MoPA Director Arthur Ollman commented, "Nash is the real thing…his vision is quite his own…if you look at his songwriting over the years, a lot of his imagery is visual. I can't help but think it's very influenced by his photographic way of seeing things." The show, featuring images including ones of family, famous friends, unknown subjects and abstract compositions, expanded on Nash's 2004 book of the same name, a limited edition volume published by Steidl. Nash has said that what he aims to capture through his lens is, "everyday, ordinary surrealism - the decisive moment." There is indeed a hyper-present, unvarnished integrity to his images - as with the feelings expressed in his songs - that reflects that stated goal with striking clarity. Garrett White, editor of the book version of Eye To Eye, perhaps put it best when, in his preface, he called the artist, "a man who is fundamentally tuned in to the world…Nash has been blessed with a powerful, elemental curiosity and love of life, a trait that has fared him very well." As it has, in turn, well served countless fans of Graham Nash's music and art.

- Mary Nash Portrait, 12/25By Graham NashLocated in Soquel, CAGorgeous archival digital photograph, limited edition giclee by Graham Nash (American, b. 1942) of an abstracted photogpah of his mother Mary Nash. #12/25. Titled, signed and dated '89. Stamp and signed on verso. Condition: Excellent. Unframed. Image size: 22"50"H x 15.25"W. Size including border: 24.33"H x 22.50"W.

It was the first image I took where I realized that it's possible that I see differently than most people. Normally my mother would be making the bed, or cooking breakfast — mother stuff. I'd never seen my mother in this contemplative mood. I'd never seen her either looking into her future or wondering if her life had been what she wanted or thinking about her past. I don't know. I only know that that's an incredible moment in my mother's existence."
