Conference: Photographing Britain
10 May 2024
The Photographers’ Gallery
London W1F 7LW
Overview
One-day conference on celebrated documentary and press photography Bert Hardy
Rethink existing narratives concerning post-war photography and its legacies in this day-long event.
Known for his work on the seminal British publication Picture Post, Bert Hardy is a pivotal figure in British photography. We will examine the formal qualities of Hardy’s photographs and the material conditions in which they were produced, reflecting, too, on discussions surrounding photojournalism to expand contemporary debates related to image-making today.
Key themes include ethics of social documentary practices; image circulation and the printed image; and broader questions on representation and methodologies in photojournalism.
Contributions from Rosalind Coffey, Rio Creech-Nowagiel, Max Houghton, Beatrice Lattanzi, Darren Newbury, Sarah Okpokam, Alexia Singh. More updates to come.
