‘An American Beauty: Grateful Dead 1965–1995 is a photography exhibition on view at David Kordansky Gallery (@davidkordanskygallery) in Los Angeles through August 16, 2025, celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Grateful Dead. Curated by renowned rock photographer Jay Blakesberg (@jayblakesberg) and his daughter Ricki Blakesberg (@lil_Rix), the show presents a sweeping visual history of the band and its surrounding community through 60 photographs.

The exhibition features works by Jay and other iconic photographers who documented the Dead’s evolution, from the psychedelic Haight-Ashbury days to their stadium-filling fame. It captures not only intimate moments with the band but also the vibrant energy of Deadhead audiences, offering a powerful lens into decades of countercultural creativity, communal spirit, and American cultural transformation. The show is deeply personal for both curators, reflecting their multigenerational connection to the music and its lasting cultural legacy.

By this point, you may know that I enjoy spending my Sundays listening to Grateful Dead. While I love their music, I love the history of the band just as much.

In a recent interview on The Sunday Scaries Podcast, I talked to @jayblakesberg and @lil_rix about photographing the Dead (among other bands), zines, jam culture, their archive of photos, Sphere, and so much more.

To listen, head to our YouTube channel and enjoy.
