Last night Jesse Frohman's "In Bloom" exhibit opened at SoHo Grand's gallery, and Papermag describes it as "epic," twice (doubly epic!). The show features Frohman's now 14-year-old images of Kurt Cobain, and allegedly some photos of flowers. He told the website, "This shoot was supposed to be a five hour shoot. We had to do it in 15 minutes. It was crazy." It took place in NYC just before Cobain's death, and the singer arrived 3 hours late, looking exactly how he does in the photographs. But why show the seven photographs, from one photo shoot, now...is this just one more person trying to capitalize on Cobain? Could he be using his 15 minutes with the icon to get his, you know, 15 minutes? Whatever the reason, the show runs through January 31st, and images from the shoot are available for purchase in multiple places online.

A photographer usually shoots to show people their images; no?
I got drunk with my mom at the soho grand on mothers day. That's all I have to add to this discussion.
I used to work with Jesse Frohman, and I can honestly say that the only reason he is still considered a "photographer" is because of these pictures. Which makes since that he's milking Cobain again because now he just shoots still life BS. Hence the flowers.
Yeah, this is rubbish. I am a huge Kurt fan, but I'm not dragging myself out of the house for this.
I wonder how much of Kurts dress style was his own ...theres obviously a huge difference between Bleach band photos and what came later...was that because he became more savvy or because he got a stylist? Either way I love I his style. I still miss Nirvana.
my question being: why did he wait so long?
