This is more than a retrospective collection of the black-and-white ‘social documentary’ style photographs of the late East London based photographer Colin O’Brien. It follows on from our first ever exhibition by this Gallery, ‘East London Life’, and the one at Bootstrap we later supported, around his book ‘London Life’, and his last planned exhibition, which we held shortly after he died in 2016, ‘This England’. It captures some of his many ‘decisive moments’ as a most engaging person and sympathetic photographer, with a gallery-curated selection of pictures taken, not just in London or England, but also in Italy, France and Africa. The majority of these photographs have never been exhibited before, including the three below, taken in Zambia, Lerici and Bethnal Green, respectively.
