Charlie Phillips Archive Exhibition Pop Up

Following on from from their successful Alan Braidwood Spring Exhibition & Azubuike Ani’s “Our Sacred World’, the Muswell Hill Gallery are proud to announce a post Carnival exhibition celebrating London’s Notting Hill life through a lense by “one of Britain’s great photo-portraitists”, Charlie Phillips, who will be on hand to talk about his definitive photographs.

The Archive Exhibition features 10 images that document London’s African-Caribbean community in Notting Hill - best seen in Charlie’s ground-breaking book “Notting Hill in the Sixties” which is a collection of iconic images of the Windrush generation. His photos capture the richness and complexity of the lives of the immigrant community, and are a hugely important archive of British culture.
The Charlie Phillips Archive Exhibition opens on Thursday 1st September with a Private View & Rum Punch Reception & canapés Carnival style. As well as the iconic Charlie Phillips photographic prints, there will be a chance to buy signed prints, books, T shirts and bags featuring Charlie and his iconic images. The Exhibiton is running for 4 days and closes on Tuesday 6th September 2022.
