Exploring the intersection of music and identity through a stark, monochromatic lens, Star Trak captures iconic musicians in moments that blend candidness with posed intensity. The images focus on the personalities and atmospheres surrounding influential figures in rock and pop culture during the 1990s.
Anton Corbijn’s photographic strategy emphasizes high-contrast black-and-white portraits and compositions that isolate his subjects against minimalist backgrounds, creating a dramatic and introspective mood. The book’s 113 pages present a curated selection that reflects Corbijn’s long-standing relationship with the music scene, highlighting not only the stars themselves but also the stage and aura that frame them.
