Few artists in contemporary music have achieved the creative, ethical, and humanistic breadth of Peter Gabriel. From his early years with Genesis — where he reinvented rock performance through theatricality, imagination, and a deeply mythopoetic sensibility — to his extraordinary solo career, Gabriel has become a singular voice in global culture. His music, shaped by a visionary fusion of rock, electronics, orchestral textures, and world sonorities, opened aesthetic and technological paths that influenced generations.
But Gabriel is far more than an innovative musician: he is a sensitive antenna tuned to the problems of his time. For decades, he has placed art at the service of social justice, human rights, and the fight against xenophobia. Founder of WOMAD, tireless defender of cultural diversity, long-standing ally of Amnesty International, and driving force behind activist platforms such as Witness — dedicated to using video to protect vulnerable communities — Gabriel transformed artistic visibility into ethical responsibility.
His work is crossed by a profoundly humanistic and ecological impulse, attentive to inequality, global violence, and the urgent need for empathy across peoples, cultures, and species. Here we present his work in four phases: from his early explorations with Genesis in GENESIS Live Shepperton (1973), to the spiritual landscape of Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ (1988), to the explosive energy of Secret World Live (1994), and the intimate orchestral reinvention with the New Blood Orchestra in Peter Gabriel: NEW BLOOD Live in London (2011). Throughout these decades, Peter Gabriel reminds us that art can be a space of encounter, healing, and future-making.
This cycle celebrates not only a musician, but an integral creator — someone who turns music into a form of thought, care, and resistance.
