Thu 1st Mar 2018 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Go to the rescheduled lecture.

The work of women photographers has often been neglected. This lecture examines the contribution of three outstanding British practitioners: Julia Margaret Cameron, a Victorian pioneer, Jane Brown, a brilliant portraitist and Fay Godwin, who excelled in landscape photography. This lecture will also explore the work of Annie Liebovitz and Dorothea Lange.


Lecturer: Mr Brian Stater BA, MSc

His chief interests lie in photography, architecture and history and he combines all three in his lecturing career. He has taught at University College London, since 1997 and became an accredited lecturer for The Arts Society in 2003. He is a member of the Association for Historical and Fine Art Photography and an exhibition of his own photographs has been staged at UCL. In an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of the skills of some great photographers of the past, he has begun to work with a pre-War Leica camera, as used by his great hero, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and many others.
