Robin Bell's Silver Footprint

[phc]

I have the honour of being selected by Robin Bell - one of the best black and white printers in London - to be in the show he's organised to mark his 35 years in the darkroom.

The list of exhibitors is as impressive as it is eclectic. Here's a selection:

Eve Arnold
Bill Brandt
Bob Carlos Clarke
Terence Donovan
Patrick Lichfield
Lee Miller
Don McCullin
Terry O'Neill
Norman Parkinson
Ken Russell
Snowden
John Swannell
Koo Stark

and, of course, yours truly! Quite a show and I'm looking forward to the opening on May 9th.

Cheers, Paul.

I attended the opening party for the show on Saturday, and for the first time saw all the pictures together. This is a great show.

The thing that makes the exhibition such a joy is its diversity - unlike most shows, where there is a strong visual theme, here the only thing tying all of these black and white pictures together is Robin's taste, and it really works. I kept walking back through the gallery during the course of the day and noticing other great pictures I hadn't seen before. It's a gem of a show, go and see it if you can.

Cheers, Paul.

It is probably worth pointing out that the exhibition is on until 20th June, and the gallery is in Battle.
