Poster collection goes on Flickr

[Belinda May]

The Poster Collection at PARC is in the process of being uploaded to Flickr. The archive holds over 300 posters dating from 1974, mostly of photographic exhibitions, from small independent galleries including Half Moon Gallery, Impressions Gallery, Cockpit Gallery Holborn to The Photographers Gallery and large institutions such as Tate, V&A Museum and the National Portrait Gallery and is a fascinating resource. This is an ongoing process with 75 images of posters already uploaded so keep checking as more go online...

We hope so and PARC are happy to receive posters into the collection either originals or digital to become part of a larger resource if you'd like to contact us. Plus if anyone has any additional information relating to the posters or the exhibitions (we do not always have the year of the exhibition or the designer for example) or wish to make a comment on the Flickr pages or contact PARC they are most welcome.

Thanks. This looks like a really useful resource
