Brian Griffin – Sliced Bread (Mother’s Pride), 1986
Brian Griffin (born in 1948 in Birmingham) is widely acknowledged as one of the most prominent British photographers of his generation, constantly working on new materials and still pushing boundaries of contemporary photography.
He is famous for his ground-breaking approach to portraiture from Iggy Pop to Kate Bush, and numerous high profile projects stretching from ‘Work’ in the 1980’s to his project charting ‘The Road to 2012’, commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery. ‘Work’ went on to be awarded the Best Photography book in the World at the Barcelona Primavera Fotografica 1991 and The Life magazine used the photograph “A Broken Frame” on its front cover of a special supplement “The Greatest Photographs Of The 80’s”.

The image is everything and is celebrated by the gallery with conviction and belief that what is seen is to be treasured, creating and harbouring that first emotional response to images is the backbone that drives the gallery. The form of escapism and creativity expressed in one with technical ability to present high quality fine art work.
