The original Madonna will forever be the best in our eyes. Back in the early 80s with the release of her debut album, Madonna's style was groundbreaking and edgy. A point where fashion, art and music was colliding in a big way for the first time.

Just before the release of her first album in 1983, photographer Richard Corman joined up with Madonna to capture the spirit of her rebellious energy. The images taken with the East Village of NYC in the background have become some of the most iconic images of Madonna from this period.

An exhibition at The Milk Gallery in New York are just about to open an exhibition of Corman's work and it is a refreshing showcase of the determined young woman on the cusp of carving out her own place in the music industry.
Catch the month long exhibition for a candid insight into the young star including some awesome contact sheets of images capturing the restless energy of Madonna at her best.
