ATLAS GALLERY ANNOUNCE A MAJOR EXHIBITION OF CHILD PORTRAITS BY OVER 50 PHOTOGRAPHERS FROM JULIA MARGARET CAMERON TO THE PRESENT DAY
Atlas Gallery have curated a special exhibition in aid of children, which includes some of the most well-known and celebrated images of children by many of the most famous photographers of the last 150 years. At the heart of the exhibition are photographs from the personal collection of Atlas Gallery founders Julia and Ben Burdett, who have been collecting photos of children since the gallery opened in 1994. A percentage of the print price of the sale of each work from the sale of works in the exhibition will be donated to Save the Children, ranging from 10% to 100% of the total value of each work.
Highlights include rare works by Henri Cartier Bresson, Paul Strand, Robert Doisneau, Dorothea Lange, Jacques Henri Lartigue, Roger Mayne, Edward Steichen, modern masterpieces by Chris Killip and Irving Penn and a host of iconic images by almost 50 different photographers from all over the world. The exhibition will be enhanced with rare first editions and archive material by many of the photographers exhibited.
A percentage of the sale price for each print sold (varying be tween 10% and 100% for each print) will be donated to Save the Children Fund, a registered charity in England and Wales (2130890), Scotland (SC039570) and Isle of Man (199). Please see exhibition catalogue for details.
