Another Kind of Life: Photography on the Margins

March 27, 2018

Until May 27th 2018 the Barbican Art Gallery presents an exhibition exploring the fringes of society through the work of photographers like Bruce Davidson, Alex Soth and Larry Clark.
Some of the most powerful images are the result of an engagement with communities seemingly at odds with, or on the fringes of, the mainstream. Another Kind of Life explores photography’s relationship with this compelling subject through the work of 20 exceptional image-makers, including Bruce Davidson, Paz Errázuriz and Larry Clark.
Reflecting a diverse, complex and authentic view of the world, the exhibition touches on themes of gender and sexuality, countercultures, subcultures and minorities of all kinds.Bringing together over 300 works from the 1950s to now, the exhibition includes vintage and contemporary prints, archival material, specialist magazines, rare film and photo books, from leading photographers who developed these relationships and bodies of works over months, years or even decades.
