Click! 2016 Photography Show at Badger & Fox Gallery.

I'm in a SHOW - but it's not all about me. The Click! 2016 Photography Exhibition kicked off in great style on Thursday night at Badger & Fox gallery with a strong attendance from the Sydney photographic community and an opening speech by Gael Newton. This year the exhibition is drawn from the Badger & Fox photography collection of Australian and International photographers, along with works by a selection of  local photographers that have caught owner/curator Peter Maddison's eye; Brett Hilder, Vivianna Barrero, MikiNobu Komatsu, Peter Maddison and myself, Kent Johnson.

The show is divide across three rooms and the stairway and loosely from vintage and 'historical' photography - original prints - through to major contemporary photography; well they are all orginal prints! If you are new to photography and wonder what classic photography looks like, this is a great show to see a good chunk of the history of photography in one place in one afternoon. Gael spoke about the transition of photography from being seen as an applied art or trade to it becoming an accepted art form in major institutional galleries, and also praised Peter for the quality of the work on show and his unswerving eye for exceptional photography. Weekends only 11 to 5 201 Albion St Surry Hills untill Nov 27.
