ASSIGNMENTS 23 - The BPPA

About

This Summer we are delighted to present ‘Assignments23’ at Ffotogallery, in what will be its first time travelling to Wales. Organised by the British Press Photographers’ Association (BPPA), this flagship exhibition will feature the best in British press photography selected from an open call. This follows its initial ten day run at London’s Bargehouse on the Southbank in May.

We are excited to host the ‘Assignments23’ exhibition here at Ffotogallery, not only as it’s the first time being exhibited in Wales, but also as it showcases photographs that will play a vital role in helping us to remember and reflect on some of the key events to have taken place in the UK in the last year.

“The BPPA are delighted to bring ‘Assignments23’ to Wales for the first time following on from our London exhibition. It is our aim to take the photographs on from their initial showing to other parts of the UK, giving them a wider audience and we’re delighted to be working with Ffotogallery to bring this incredible representation of British press photography to Cardiff.” - Chair of the BPPA Paul Ellis

The exhibition comprises photographs submitted via the ‘Assignments23’ open call, with selections made by a panel of jurors including Phil Coburn (Daily Mirror), Talar Kalajian (Agence France-Presse), Matthew Fearn (The Telegraph), Alan Crowhurst (Getty Images) and Freddie Sloan (Hello Magazine).
