The biggest exhibition the 75 year old manufacturer has ever hosted and arguably one of the most diverse ever seen in the UK . There will be contributions from 22 photographers, each acclaimed in their own field including: fashion, celebrity, music, sport, macro, erotic, reportage, landscape, portrait etc. All pictures are currently unpublished and were shot on digital over the last 12 months with each artist providing a minimum of two shots.
The theme of the exhibition is the evolution of the relationship between photographer + camera over the the decades and how this new epoch of photography is arguably the most exciting and populist ever.
