San Antonio rock-scene veteran Anthony Garcia will show his black-and-white portrait photography in a First Friday exhibition centered around visual art from local musicians.
"Basically, I had the keys to the place, and all of my artist friends weren't working, so it seemed like a way to stay creative," said Garcia, 52. "The whole vibe at the time was weird." Indeed, Garcia's rep as a rocker predates his serious pursuit of photography. He began snapping photos at shows and doing band portraits about seven years ago in an effort to capture the visual energy of the local music scene.
