The Summer Show 2011: 20th Century Icons

The Summer Show 2011: 20th Century Icons: This summer, as Proud Galleries celebrates its 15th birthday, we are pleased to present an exhibition of the most iconic prints from the last 15 years. We have delved into our extensive archive and reviewed the most important exhibitions in our 15 year history to produce ‘The Summer Show 2011: 20th Century Icons'. Incorporating the greatest icons of the 20th century captured by the most highly regarded photographers, this exhibition is a nostalgic look at the faces and photographers at the heart of Proud Galleries' history.

A photographic journey through the various different areas that we specialise in including music, film, sports, documentary and film-still photography; this exhibition is an opportunity to peruse an exceptional collection of the most classic photography of all time, never seen before in one exhibition. It includes Beatles album covers by Michael Cooper and Iain Macmillan, bold portraits of Jimi Hendrix by David Montgomery and David Magnus, and Brian Aris' candid shots of Blondie. These will be exhibited alongside prints that take in the length and breadth of popular culture, including work from our best-selling ‘Withnail & I' exhibitions by Murray Close and by legendary film director, Ken Russell.

Whether you are a first time visitor or a Proud Galleries regular, this exhibition will reignite your love of some of the most iconic portraits of the 20th century.
