Exhibition Label

Justin Timberlake rose to prominence at a young age as a member of NSYNC during the era of packaged boy bands but has since emerged as a distinctive singer in his own right. His first solo album, Justified (2002), was successful worldwide, and its follow-ups, FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006) and The 20/20 Experience (2013), earned him critical acclaim as a musician for his skill at combining various styles. He has also become known as an actor, particularly for roles in The Social Network (2010) and Inside Llewyn Davis (2013).

Peggy Sirota captured this composite portrait of Timberlake for the “Most Stylish Men in America” issue of GQ in March 2009. He wears a T-shirt from his William Rast clothing line and a fedora, one of his signature styles. Timberlake is also a skilled dancer, which is suggested by the gestural quality of the poses in this photograph.

Justin Timberlake alcanzó prominencia a temprana edad como integrante de NSYNC en la época de los grupos de jovencitos cantantes “pre-empacados”, pero desde entonces se ha destacado como un cantante con individualidad propia. Su primer álbum como solista, Justified (2002), fue un éxito mundial, y con FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006) y The 20/20 Experience (2013) logró impresionar a los críticos como músico por su talento para combinar estilos diversos. También se ha dado a conocer como actor, sobre todo por sus papeles en las películas The Social Network (2010) y Inside Llewyn Davis (2013).

Peggy Sirota tomó este retrato compuesto de Timberlake para la edición de “los hombres con más estilo en Norteamérica” de la revista GQ, en marzo de 2009. Aquí lleva una camiseta de su línea de ropa William Rast y un sombrero de fieltro, uno de sus estilos característicos. Timberlake también es un diestro bailarín, como lo sugiere la gestualidad de las poses en esta fotografía.
