Photography Trip
We are planning an A2 visit to two major photographic exhibitions in London, on Wednesday 14th July. The cost is £17 plus £12.50 for the meal in the evening at Wong Kei's Restaurant. Letters can be collected from the Photography Office and need to be returned to the Finance Office by Friday 25th June at the latest.

EXPOSED at Tate Modern, presents 250 works by celebrated artists and photographers. The exhibition explores a range of different imagery from the nineteenth century to the present day. This includes different forms of covert photography, hidden cameras and images taken without the knowledge of the subject. Surveillance is a key theme running through the exhibition. Some of the work will challenge the viewer.

Highlights include iconic images from Brassai, Walker Evans, WeeGee, Philip-Lorca di Corcia, Nan Goldin, Guy Bourdin, Man Ray, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Lee Miller,Helmut Newton among others.

The Family and the Land

The work of American photographer Sally Mann is deeply rooted in both her family and the landscape she lives and works in. This exhibition at the Photographers' Gallery, draws on several powerful photographic series from throughout her long career.
