Talk: Milo Belgrove and Chris Nunn – Tues 24th Feb, 2015

January 16, 2015 by Jim Stephenson

Around this time last year we saw the protests in Maiden Square, Kiev in full swing, with photographers from all over the world descending to document the troubles. Chris Nunn and Milo Belgrove were two photographers who headed out as well, Chris to continue his work in the country, and Milo for the first time. They both chose to photograph a different side of a country in flux, focusing on the people and life continuing against a tumultuous backdrop. We’re very pleased […]

Day 6 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 6, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

Another day and the Grand Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar rolls on with our regular writer Alexander Norton taking us through Paul Graham’s ‘Does Yellow Run Forever’… The colour yellow has a host of connotations. These are not obvious by any means. Yellow cooperates with gold and gold implies a kind of value. So when considering the question ‘Does Yellow Run Forever?’ we are posed an incredibly in depth answer in return. Paul Graham’s practice has always made us work for the meaning and […]

Day 3 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 3, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

Day 3 of our Grand Photobook Advent Calendar and Nicoletta Barbata takes us through one of her favourite book’s of the year… When I think about Photographs Rendered in Play-Doh I think of a great tiny book which well represents what photography is about and what we love about photography at Miniclick. Photography should arouse curiosity, should whet your appetite to know more. It can be communicate in hundreds of different ways. If it’s done with a sense of fun, then […]

This year, during Brighton Photo Fringe for our ‘Another Way of Looking’ programme, we hosted an exhibition of Louis Porter’s ‘The Anatomy of Business’. The show was very kindly sponsored by Spectrum, who printed and mounted the works for us and helped guide us along the way to make sure the final prints were as good as they possible could be. We interviewed them about their unique insight into what goes into an exhibition and who is doing what right […]
