London Workshop Weekend

Wednesday 24 February 2010

in-public founder and editor of PUBLICATION magazine Nick Turpin will be leading a two day workshop Photographing London for The School of Life.

SATURDAY 27th & SUNDAY 28th MARCH

This unusual weekend offers a chance to explore the visual dynamics and contradictions of street life in the capital.

In the tradition of the flaneur, we’ll stroll from Soho to Brick Lane via a network of roads and districts that have provided the backdrop for many of the greatest photographs ever taken in London.

We’ll observe the fleeting interactions of people, matter and imagery from visual, sociological and historical perspectives. We’ll look at stories, anecdotes and slide-shows from intrepid photographers who have captured the city’s unconventional photographic allure as well as iconic images which remind us of its role as a stage for national events.

You’ll finish the weekend with a fantastic set of holiday snaps – and the ability to see the city in a completely different light.

I’m a Photographer, Not a Terrorist!

Friday 08 January 2010

Trafalgar Square Protest

I’m a Photographer, Not a Terrorist! invites all Photographers to a mass photo gathering in defence of street photography.

There has been a series of high profile detentions under Section 44 of the Terrorism Act recently, including seven armed police detaining an award-winning architectural photographer in the City of London, the arrest of a press photographer covering campaigning Santas at City Airport, and the stop and search of a BBC photographer at St Paul’s Cathedral, among many others.

So PHNAT feels now is the time for a mass turnout of photographers, professional and amateur alike, to defend our rights and stop this abuse of the terror laws.

In-public street photographers will be there.

Manifesto

In-Public was set up in 2000 to provide a home for Street Photographers.

Our aim is to promote Street Photography and to continue to explore its possibilities, we are a non commercial collective. All the photographers featured here have been invited to show their work because they have the ability to see the unusual in the everyday and to capture the moment. The pictures remind us that, if we let it, over-familiarity can make us blind to what’s really going on in the world around us.
