AFTER THE THAW

Posted on 2011-11-14

After The Thaw presents a unique and stimulating insight into the lives of people living in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia and Tajikistan. When these countries gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, the attention of the world briefly focused upon this cluster of new nations. The prospect of democracy seemed to offer a genuine opportunity for a future of peace and prosperity. Two decades on, away from the media spotlight, millions of people continue to struggle to build a livelihood in a post-communist world.

After The Thaw offers a stark, moving and contemporary portrayal of some of the remarkable individuals and communities that populate the region today. The exhibition reveals an astonishing richness and variety of cultures, and Oxfam is proud to be able to assist in bringing attention to these inspiring people. Oxfam runs programmes in all of the countries featured, and continues to work to help support people and fight poverty throughout the region.

Exhibition runs through to November 19th, 2011

MITCH EPSTEIN: AMERICAN POWER

Posted on 2011-11-14

American Power (2003-9) examines how energy is produced and used in the American landscape, questioning the power of nature, government and corporations. Epstein was awarded the prestigious Prix Pictet photographic award in March 2011 for this body of work, which offers a radical reflection on “the American Dream gone awry”.

The project began in 2003 when Epstein photographed a small town in Ohio after compulsory land purchase by the American Electric Power company. He went on to document 25 US States over a period of six years, producing a prolific body of work that depicts the effects of mass consumption.

Exhibition runs through to December 23rd, 2011
