Fresh Faced and Wild Eyed.
Photographers Gallery London
Exhibition
We’ve been far to busy soaking up some of this beautiful sunshine that we got caught out with all the beautifully wonderful things the creative community is offering us this month, so we’ve pulled out some of our top picks of the month that we really wanted to give to you as a peace offering? If we had a slice of cake we would also give you a piece.
Fresh Faced and Wild Eyed shows at The Photographers Gallery this month 16th May - 7th June. It is an embodiment of the top 25 graduated students from Britain last year, placed in the minimal landscape of the Photographers Gallery and opened up for the public to see. We are very please to say that three of our community photographers have been selected for the show; Ozant Kamaci and Ekaterina Demidova are amongst these selected few. We wanted to pay homage to our brothers and sister in congratulating them on this success.
The Show is a wonderful display and a variety of thematic content to inspire, evoke and stimulate the viewer. This is our selected exhibition of the month and gets a full backing from out team.

Magazines & Books:
- File Magazine Unexpected Photography. We’ve been following File now for the past 4 issues and we love it. It’s a refreshing magazine that encompasses all that is great in current design at the moment. This issue is photography based mainly so is well worth a look.
- Next Level Magazine, Issue 19. These guys from Scotland are cleaning up in the photography magazine world and issue 19 is no exception to what we’ve come to expect. It centres around the position of photograpy in the current art market. One to Keep!!
- Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky. This Russian novelist needs quirky introduction as any kind would be futile to the greatness of this read. It’s the summer book for Photography and Mash.
Music:
- Meltdown Festival has to be the talk of the month in the music world. Recent curators of the festival include Morrisey and Bowie, enough said? This year they’ve asked Richard Thompson to cast his musical brain over the festival. Highlights include Eliis Costello, Seasick Steve and Broken Bells. There’s also a FREE film screening of Werner Herzog’s The Grizzly Man as part of the festival. Tickets are pretty cheap Also!! http://meltdown.southbankcentre.co.uk/about/
Hope that’s enough goodies for you lovely people to enjoy this week.
With Peace,
Photography & Mash.
