Indepth Arts News: "Aspects of Architecture" 2004-09-22 until 2005-01-15 Sheffield Galleries and Museum Trust, Graves Art Gallery Sheffield, , UK United Kingdom
Aspects of Architecture will be displayed in four sections: Making the
Record, Construction, Looking in Detail and Architecture as Art. The images
on display will range from Stonehenge, the Millennium Dome and the
construction of the Paris Opera House, to Sheffield's Castle Market, taken
by leading photographers including Bill Brandt, Walker Evans and Roger
Fenton. The exhibition will also include work by Japanese artist, Naoya
Hatakeyama, recently acquired by V&A. This piece will receive its world
premier in Sheffield.
Bill Brandt was perhaps Britain's greatest 20th century photographer.
Throughout the 1930s and 40s he contributed reportage to various illustrated
magazines, including Picture Post and Lilliput, and his work has been highly
influential on generations of British photographers. William Eggleston set
the precedent for colour documentary and art photography over the last 20
years. Walker Evans is one of the most celebrated American photographers and
Roger Fenton was a key figure in the first generation of photographers,
having worked as the official photographer of the Crimean War and the Royal
Family.
