Frank Ockenfels 3 has had an enviable career with a camera. He’s photographed rock stars (Kurt Cobain, Tracy Chapman, David Bowie), actors (George Clooney, Angelina Jolie, Tom Hanks), and politicians (Barack Obama). He’s shot promotional stills for blockbusters such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, and Hulu’s The Bear. And at 63, he has 35,000 followers on Instagram, where he shares old Polaroids of Bruce Springsteen and stills from the new season of American Horror Story, starring Kim Kardashian. Fotografiska’s survey of the artist’s three-decade career features over 100 works, from his black-and-white portraits of Hollywood personalities to experimental paintings done on skateboards. —Paulina Prosnitz
