Photography Trip to Paintworks
On Friday 4th November our A level Photography pupils visited the Paintworks at Bristol.
During the morning they viewed the current exhibition at the Martin Parr Foundation; they were given a guided tour of the archives and found out how exhibitions are curated and how photographers plan photobooks. They also had the amazing opportunity to meet Martin Parr himself and speak to him about his work and their own projects. In the afternoon, they visited the current exhibition of alternative printing processes at the Royal Photographic Society and participated in a Cyanotype workshop run by the educational staff there.
They have returned full of inspiration and creative ideas to put into their coursework!
