V&A Photography Gallery opened tonight

[Michael Pritchard]

The V&A Photography Gallery opened this evening. The display and room was every bit as good as the exclusive BPH photographs showed (see:http://britishphotohistory.ning.com/profiles/blogs/exclusive-the-new-v-a-photography-gallery-opening-tuesday-25th-oc. Shown here is the V&A Director opening the gallery with Curators Martin Barnes and Marta Weiss to his side. 

The gallery opens to the public Tuesday morning. Make a date and visit - you won't be disappointed.

Four words to describe it: 'Not to be missed!"

And if you can't make it there personally, you can catch a glimpse of it, including interviews with the curators, on the links here and here.

The oldest photo in the V&A collection and among the first made in England.
