At the Photographers Gallery in London until 2 June this year go and see great news photography by Bert Hardy.
‘From his early career as a news and sports photographer, to serving combat cameraman and successful advertising entrepreneur, this retrospective of the renowned photojournalist shines a fresh light on his four-decade long career. The exhibition celebrates Hardy’s wide-ranging social documentary work across mid-century Britain, including Liverpool, Cardiff, Belfast, Tyneside and Glasgow. His travels across post-war Europe and images from the many conflicts he reported on will also be on show, as well as a rich selection of materials from Hardy’s archive, such as press passes, correspondence, diaries, original publications, and some of his lesser-known colour work.’
