Exhibition review: The Photographer's Gallery-Perspectives on Collage

To start of this exhibition we had to first find our way to london, the exhibition was at the photographers gallery which is located right next to the oxford circus tube station. One person exhibiting at the gallery that we looked at with great detail was laura letinsky who takes photos of certain objects that relate to the theme and subject mater, and in some of her photos their would be drawings of some objects which gave the image a real serial look on things.

Underneath this text is all the pictures I took on the day when we all went down to the photographers gallery, one piece of imagery I found good was the second image down from this piece of text as it is a since of freedom as its not greatly detailed but has some sort of meaning behind it, but then again I dont like it in away as it is to childish to be in gallery of this high quality, a kid could of done this piece and possibly done it better in some sense but I think thats what its serposted to be.

 One artist I liked at the exhibition was called Geraldo de barros he was born in 1923 and died in 1998, he never wanted to become a photographer and never really wanted to do this as a living and only really took fame when he got to a later age. Basically after a series of strokes and when he was only restricted to a wheelchair he took photography back up. With this in mind his daughter was looking though loads of old pictures and with the two years he had left which he of course didn't know he started the project sobras which of course didn't get finished and in the gallery now and with the rest of the work of sobras, the exhibition at the gallery is called what remains which is a great title for this piece and really has a lot of meaning behind the title alone.
