Review of The Photographers Gallery

01 Jul 07, 18:46

Fantastic Gallery 5*

I love the Photographers' Gallery. Split across two small sites, it holds a wide range of accessible, but always fascinating and beautiful shows.

The most recent show 'Found Photographs' proved to be fun and thought-provoking which questioned the authenticity of the act of photography without ever veering into pretense. Situated just off Covent Garden and completely free, if you're ever passing by there should never be an excuse not to pop in and quickly check out what's on.

They also host the annual Deutsche Borse Photography Awards (or whoever is sponsoring them now) which always proves to highlight some of the world's leading photographers.

Also have a great cafe and book shop.
