This year - 2025 - marks the fiftieth anniversary of two significant British photography institutions. 2025 marks Four Corners’ 50th anniversary. A programme of events and exhibitions looking into its radical heritage and looking forward to its future. The year also marks fifty years since the Fox Talbot Musuem opened in Lacock on 28 June 1975.The Museum will be hosting an exhibition from May of the little known colour photography of Werner Bischof and has exciting plans for the museum and gardens. A short history is in preparation.
Separately to British photography, 2025 sees the centenary of the launch of the Leica camera in spring 1925. Leica will, no doubt, be commemorating this significant anniversary in Wetlzar and across the world.
