A few months back, we covered an exhibit of music photography at the Minnesota Center for Photography called Musicapolis (which has incidentally been extended to run through Oct. 21), and now, we're putting our money where our mouth is. Photographer Steven Cohen approached me about doing some work for Pulse, and when U2 came calling, I jumped at the chance to have Cohen do a photoessay for us.
You can view the U2 photo essay as it appeared in Pulse (in a pdf) by clicking here.
We
at Pulse try to cover developing and emerging artists, which U2 is certainly
no longer, but what we're doing here is opening up a venue for a different kind
of rock journalism—photography. We’re proud to be the first to present
these photos of U2’s recent show at the Target Center here in our pages.
More of Cohen’s work can be viewed at MusicPhotography.com.
