"Bill Brandt: A Centenary Retrospective"

Victoria and Albert Museum
London, ,
UK
The V&A will celebrate the centenary of the birth of Bill Brandt (1904-83), one of the most important photographers of modern times, with a major exhibition and an international conference. The exhibition presents 155 vintage gelatin-silver prints from the Bill Brandt Archive and is the most important Brandt exhibition for over 30 years.
Brandt's best-known work documents the vivid social contrasts in Britain during the World Wars. He also photographed the landscapes of 'Literary Britain' and a pantheon of great artists and writers, as well as creating his outstanding series 'Perspective of Nudes'. Bill Brandt: A Centenary Retrospective is curated by John-Paul Kernot and organised by The Bill Brandt Archive.
