Still Image: Gallery Visits

For Still Image, my class and I went to three gallery's, these were 'The Photographers Gallery,' 'Marian Goodman Gallery,' and 'Frith Street Gallery.' The gallery I enjoyed the most is the 'Photographers Gallery,' as within this gallery, the two aspects that interested me the most is the John Lyon Gallery and the Wolfson Gallery.
The John Lyon Gallery contains photographs of a global biotechnology company, which is called Monsanto. These photographs depicts the 'devastating human, environmental and economic impact of the companies reckless growth'. I found this gallery to be interesting as it gives information through its photographs, they tell how the Monsanto company is doing harm to the environment and how it affects people.
The Wolfson Gallery contains photographs of cross dressers, it shows the 'Secret History of Cross-Dressers. This section shows men and women cross dressing and wearing each others clothes. This section also shows different years cross dressers appears e.g. in the 19th century in women's colleges, women there held mock weddings where the groom and bride are both females.
