About Photo Oxford

Photo Oxford 2017 is a celebration of photography through exhibitions and related activities taking place at various collaborative venues in Oxford from 8th - 24th September 2017.

The curators, Tim Clark (Editor in Chief at 1000 Words) and Greg Hobson (Curator of Photographs at the National Media Museum 1983-2016) have placed an emphasis on works that explore the complex and often contradictory relationship between photography’s capacity to both conceal and reveal.

It will feature work from photographic artists including Martin Parr, Edgar Martins, Mariken Wessels, Sergei Vasiliev and Arkady Bronnikov.
