From July 18 to October 18, 2025, the Leica Gallery Munich on Maffeistraße 4 transforms into a luminous celebration of André Rau’s four decades of portrait and fashion photography. The exhibition, titled The Famous, offers a rare opportunity to explore the depth of Rau’s artistic vision, and among the many treasures on display, visitors will find a glamorous and powerful portrait of Michael Jackson.
Among the many highlights of his career is his work with Michael Jackson. Rau managed to capture the King of Pop in a rare light, presenting him not only as the global superstar known to millions but also as a man of poise and charisma beyond the stage. The portrait included in The Famous exhibition is a testament to Rau’s ability to portray icons in a way that feels both timeless and intimate. In Rau’s hands, Michael Jackson is not just photographed—he is immortalised, his presence transformed into an emblem of an era and a reminder of his enduring influence.

I always loved that photo, one of my favorites from the era.
Plus the pants remind me of this shirt or robe. He always looks great in patterns!

Hey guys, I will be going to the exhibition and I also want to visit the memorial that day. So, I was thinking of printing a drawing I made and put some names of forum members on there 🧐.

In case you want to participate, please write me a dm with your name (real name or nickname) 'til... let's say October 2nd. So I have enough time to prepare everything ✌️.
 
Disappointed. Thought it was gonna be this guy blasting out HIStory medleys with an enormous orchestra.
