TORONTO — Former Hole bassist Melissa Auf der Maur and Paul McCartney are each set to showcase a piece of rock music history at the Art Gallery of Ontario.
Organizers say both musicians will bring exhibits of their personal photographs to the gallery next year, offering a unique window into their worlds at the peak of fame.
“Melissa Auf der Maur: My ’90s Photographs” opens in June 2026 and will present “an intimate portrait of the last analogue decade” through the lens of the Montreal alt-rock musician.
Auf der Maur used her camera to document the action of life backstage, onstage and in the crowd, as she played in Hole and the Smashing Pumpkins. The exhibit runs until spring 2027.
“Paul McCartney Photographs 1963-64: Eyes of the Storm” opens in February with video clips, archival mate
