Two cultural icons unite to honor the timeless spirit of music, photography, and rock & roll storytelling.

Rock & roll has never been just about the sound — it’s about the story, the attitude, and the imagery that makes legends eternal. No one embodies that connection better than Morrison Hotel Gallery, which just announced a powerhouse partnership with the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Together, these two institutions are setting the stage for a new era of immersive exhibitions and unforgettable cultural experiences.

“I’ve always admired how the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame preserves and elevates the music we celebrate at the Gallery. We’re aligned in purpose,” said Nick Bonomo, COO of Morrison Hotel Gallery. “This partnership opens the door to exciting new exhibitions and deepens our engagement with music culture in a meaningful way. I’m thrilled about what we’ll create together.”

This collaboration bridges the world of visual storytelling and sonic legacy, celebrating artists who shaped entire generations. From candid backstage moments to the electric energy of live performance, Morrison Hotel Gallery’s vast archive mirrors the Hall of Fame’s mission — to honor the icons who defined and redefined rock & roll.

The current Rock & Roll Hall of Fame exhibit spotlights the 2025 class of inductees, featuring Bad Company, Chubby Checker, Joe Cocker, Cyndi Lauper, Outkast, Soundgarden, and The White Stripes among the Performers, plus Salt-N-Pepa and Warren Zevon for Musical Influence, Thom Bell, Nicky Hopkins, and Carol Kaye for Musical Excellence, and Lenny Waronker for the Ahmet Ertegun Award.

Together, the Gallery and the Hall will create thematic exhibitions and special events celebrating inductees past, present, and future — keeping the rhythm of rock alive through fine art photography and experiential storytelling.

At its core, rock & roll is about connection. From Cleveland to the coasts, from analog film to digital archives, this partnership amplifies the enduring power of the music that moves us — and the images that remind us why it always will.
