    PRESS RELEASE Genesis House Gallery 26 October 2011 GENESIS PUBLICATIONS & Reading Rooms Fine Limited Editions Since 1974 genesis-publications.com The Faces unveil their first book with an exhibition of photos. A nd new paintings by Ronnie Wood Surrey, UK, 26 October 2011 – Last night at Genesis House Gallery & Reading Rooms, two heroes of contemporary rock music came together to announce the launch of their new book: FACES 1969-75 . The legendary guitarist of the Jeff Beck Group, Faces and the Rolling Stones - Ronnie Wood - joined fellow band mate, former drummer for the Small Faces, Faces, and The Who - Kenney Jones - for a private celebration and unveiling of the Faces’ first official book. This November 2011, a new 8-week exhibition commemorates the book’s launch: Nearly 100 pages are blown up and reproduced on Genesis’s gallery walls. Visitors are invited to stroll through the Faces’ glory years from the band’s First Step in 1969 to their eventual split in 1975. Also on display are 5 new paintings by Ronnie Wood, seen for the very first time. Entitled ‘The Famous Flames Suite’ – the paintings capture the Rolling Stones in performance. ‘Making the book we went through so many photos it brought back memories and, when we were finished, I looked through it, and it actually brought a tear to my eye. I thought it was just me but then I spoke to Woody and he said exactly the same thing had happened to him.’ Kenney Jones ‘We were bored so much hanging around in places where they didn’t even know how to make a salad… It’s amazing how such great things can come out of being bored.’ Ronnie Wood Among hundreds of guests, Ronnie and Kenney were also joined by new Faces frontman, Mick Hucknall and artist Sir Peter Blake .
