About
The portraits in this exhibition were taken at Latitude Festivalin 2009, with each performer photographed before and
after reading to capture the tension and exhilaration of
performing poetry to a large audience.
Subjects included the Poet Laureate Sir Andrew Motion, in
addition to poets Simon Armitage, Laura Dockrill, Paul
Farley, Jackie Kay, Kate Tempest and Luke Wright.
Join us for a glass of wine at the private view, where the
following poets will perform their poetry from 8pm: Josh
Idehen, Tamsin Kendrick, Molly Naylor and John Osborne.
