Produced in collaboration with Woodstock Executive Producer, Michael Lang, Woodstock Experience, retells the story of the most influential music festival in history through an official book & multimedia box set in celebration of Woodstock's 40th anniversary, published as a signed limited edition of only 1,000 copies.
Woodstock Experience reproduces many hundreds of photographs with the quality and finishing readers expect from Genesis. The official Woodstock archives of Henry Diltz, and a previously unseen portfolio by the late Dan Garson, are both published.
Of the photographers represented, Henry Diltz, was Woodstock's official photographer. Few were afforded the same level of access as Henry, and none possess the extensive archive published in this edition.Not since the milestone publication of Blinds & Shutters in 1989 has Genesis enlisted so many participants. 65 artists and luminaries provide an unparalleled account of Woodstock and the era.
