The gallery describes how, despite being shaped by different trajectories, ‘these three artists shared an acute sensitivity to modern life: its velocity, its fragmentation and its dislocations. Working in the shadow of political upheaval, each turned their camera towards the street, the surreal and the overlooked, forging a new visual language for the modern age…. Their work spanned decades and continents, moving from Surrealist-inflected street photography to experimentation with photomontage, solarisation and other darkroom techniques.’
The exhibition, entitled Pathfinders, seeks to illuminate how each shaped photography as a mode of modern seeing. It runs from 18 July to 13 September.
