Fine Art Management Corp. Publishes Unreleased Photos of Michael Jackson Taken During a 1978 Photo Shoot in Westlake Village, Calif.

CAMARILLO, Calif., July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- With the recent passing of Michael Jackson, Fine Art Management Corporation, along with noted Celebrity Photographer Gregg Cobarr, are set to release rare photographs of Michael Jackson with sister Janet and brothers -- Jackie, Marlon, Tito and Randy-- taken during a two-day photo shoot in August 1978 in Westlake Village and Los Angeles, Calif. These photos will be available to the public for the first time through http://www.fineartmanagementnews.com/ and exhibited at David W. Street Gallery in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Gregg Cobarr joined forces with Ira Shore, Owner and CEO of Fine Art Management Corporation in Camarillo, Calif., to distribute these photos to the public. Cobarr selected FAMC to distribute his prized photographs to the public because of FAMC's reputation and previous high-profile projects with The Muhammad Ali Center, Disney Fine Art, among others.

"I decided to release the photos to the public for the first time now because I wanted people to see the 'real' Michael as I knew him from the photo sessions," said Cobarr. "He had such a kind, sensitive, fun and charismatic nature. The public has never seen most of these photos and they have never, ever been offered for sale to the public."

The photographs were taken prior to the release of The Jacksons' first album, "Destiny," with their new record label, Epic Records, to be used for the album's advertising and publicity.

"Gregg Cobarr's catalog of photographs of numerous Pop and Rock celebrities uniquely capture candid close-up's moments in time. He takes the time to get to know his subjects and these relationships are clearly reflected in his work," said Shore. "We are excited to be working with Gregg and share his work with the world."

Gregg Cobarr has over 30 years of professional experience with such music industry clients as Columbia and Epic Records, Capitol, RCA, Curb and Warner Bros. In the TV and film industry, he has worked with 20th Century Fox and Columbia Pictures. Gregg's work has been published both nationally and internationally, and recently he presented Master Classes to International Photo Affairs in Europe.

Founded in 1993 by Ira Shore, Fine Art Management Corporation offers management services and business expertise in art marketing and distribution, artist representation, art brokerage, licensing services, and cruise venue art auction coordination.
