Exhibitions @ Gallery 1885

A great feature of the Camera Club is that it has its own attractive ground-floor gallery – Gallery 1885 – with high-quality exhibition lighting and hanging space for around 40 exhibition prints. Monthly exhibitions feature outstanding work by one or more members, plus ‘outside’ exhibitions of national standing, as well as members' open exhibitions and competitions.

Gallery 1885 is open to the public – you do not have to be a Club Member to enjoy our exhibitions.


To see our upcoming exhibitions please visit our blog or wait for announcements on the homepage.

SIMON LOWER
​15 APR - 10 MAY

Open View 18 Apr 7PM

Interesting people are everywhere, it's only when they're in an environment that holds them, that embraces them, that they reveal themselves. That is why Soho is a photographer’s paradise.

“Soho a place where I feel safe, a place that inspires me. I spend a lot of time on the streets. I don’t shoot just the street, though, I photograph people. Real people. Sometimes pretend people. Soho is a place where you can be who you really are or who you want to be”. 

Simon Lower is best known for his timeless black and white photographs. Often described as a street photographer, he would describe himself as a people photographer. “It’s worth it just for the feeling that comes with seeing another human being or allowing myself to be seen”.
