August is almost upon us and we have an exciting performance based talk for you this month. Our free talk in Brighton will be on the topic of Photography and Performance, hopefully exploring the paradoxical relationship between performer and photographer and how this can effect the language of both mediums. Our speakers include Jocelyn Allen and Kate Radford who will both be talking about their experiences working with both mediums. We will also be lucky enough to be showing the debut performance of ‘26.2’ by Kate Radford, documenting her journey from the accidental signing up to the marathon to her completion of it earlier this year.
