Tate Britain Exhibiton - UPDATE

I went to see this exhibition over half-term and it is FANTASTIC!

All AS Photography students who are planning to carry onto A2 MUST go and see it!!

For everyone else, it has one of the best ranges of British photography that I have ever seen on display.

From W H Fox Talbot, Julia Margaret Cameron, Roger Fenton, Hill and Adamson through to contemporary photographers such as Simon Norfolk, Martin Parr plus many new names.

This exhibition is highly recommended - highlights for me were the colour photographs by Madame Yevonde (Room 3) and actual prints on display from David Bailey's Box of Pin Ups (Room 4).
