Michael Jackson Exhibition Dedicates New Beverly Hills Gallery

Rare photographs of Michael Jackson with sister, Janet and brothers - Jackie, Marlon, Tito and Randy, will be exhibited and available to the public for the first time ever at David W. Streets Beverly Hills Fine Art. These rare photos, taken during August of 1978, give a glimpse into the life of Michael and his siblings at a time in their lives when they were all experiencing a new beginning in LA. The occasion was an exclusive photo session in Los Angeles by noted Celebrity Photographer, Gregg Cobarr, prior to the release of their first album, "Destiny", for their new record label, Epic Records. These historical images were created at two locations around Los Angeles - the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and a private lake in Westlake Village.




Cobarr's photos portray the innocence, the excitement, the tenderness and heart of Michael Jackson in a way only he can describe. "I wanted to make sure that Michael felt free to be himself", states Cobarr, "so that I could truly capture the essence of Michael. I wanted people to get a sense of Michael for who he really was and now more than ever, this is truly the important aspect of the photographs and of the exhibit." The public has never even seen most of the photos and they have never, ever been offered for sale to the public.




Gregg Cobarr has over thirty years of professional experience with such music industry clients as Columbia and Epic Records, Capitol, RCA, Curb and Warner Bros. In the T.V and film industry, he has worked with 20th Century Fox and Columbia Pictures. He holds a Bachelors Degree from Brooks Institute of Photography and a Masters of Fine Arts Degree from California Institute of the Arts. Gregg's work has been published both nationally and internationally and recently, he has presented Master Classes in Europe as well as several exhibitions.




David W. Streets, owner of David W. Streets Beverly Hills Gallery has beena Celebrity Fine Art Dealer with an international reputation for over 25 years. Streets' collectors include a diverse group ranging from American Presidents to major corporations to first time and serious collectors to foreign dignitaries and famous celebrities.




All images exhibited in the gallery are signed by Cobarr and include a Letter of Authenticity. Gallery owner, David Streets has decided to donate a portion of a special, very reasonably priced "Tribute Photo" to one of Michael's charities. The Michael Jackson exhibit will open on Wednesday, July 8th. David W. Streets Beverly Hills Fine Art is open from 11 to 6 daily, Sunday by appointment, and located at 9411 S. Santa Monica Blvd., Beverly Hills, 90210. The gallery can be contacted at 310-275-3464 or by emailing David W. Streets to:
