Horst at the V&A

[cliffpatte]

I went to see this exhibition at the V&A on Sunday, and I have to say that I found it to be excellent. Every one of the Black and White prints from Vogue was so perfectly produced. The colour prints, recently made from negs from the 30s, 40s and 50s, were absolutely outstanding.

fabulous exhibition, highly recommended

Went the Saturday before - unfortunately fairly busy when we went and it was a case of being in a queue to see each of the pictures in the first room - not so bad further on. I liked the platinum prints towards the end. Our friend Kevin was with us and looking through the catalogue said he preferred to see them on the page (but then he is a graphic designer). We went on to the Science Museum to see "Make life worth Living :
Nick Hedges photographs for Shelter 1968-72" which is free. A complete contrast eye-opening and moving pictures. Well worth seeing too.
