Brighton Photo Fringe: Bellis Gallery
Brighton Photo Biennial
21 Jan 2009
Murray Ballard A late posting for a worthwhile show. Right at the end of the Fringe festival, I visited the interesting Bellis Gallery, a particularly beautiful space that manages to be right in the centre of town yet off the tourist trail (8-9 Kings Road). The show was called Human Endeavour, and work by four recent graduates from Brighton University – Murray Ballard, Alex Currie, Richard Chivers and Simon Carruthers was well exhibited and intelligently curated.

Reportage Festival, The Screening
Reportage Festival Sydney
28 Oct 2008

Stefano de Luigi The Screening was an evening comprising the work of 21 photojournalists selected by a jury to present recent projects and images. The images of each photographer were set at seven second intervals to music. Curiously, it was the music that came to define the photographer’s work: the correct music selection – which may have been overlooked by some – was integral to the final impression. The purpose of the accompaniment was of course to create atmosphere for the images and help convey the story, but it begs the question: what song was playing in the photographer’s mind when taking the shot – if any at all?

 
Reportage Festival, Sydney (2)
Reportage Festival Sydney
28 Oct 2008

Whilst waiting for the Reportage seminar to start, a thought occurred to me: where does photojournalism sit within public scrutiny? And, more importantly, how do photojournalists perceive themselves and their peers? It is known that in this digital age, photo-manipulation is a common practice; thus at the first of two seminar sessions, Dr Ian Jackson, Mike Bowers and Ben Bohane sat to discuss photojournalism and photo-manipulation in conflict.
