M E L B O UR N E | MUST GO

AS MODERN AS TOMORROW
1 July 2011 - 5 Feb 2012
State Library of Victoria
328 Swanston Street, Melbourne


This exhibition has been on since July '10, but speaking around no one seems to know it's on!
So good, i gotta highly recommend it.

A collection of photographs, publications, advertisements all from the Post-War decade in Melbourne.
Including beautiful photographs from Helmut Newton, Wolfgang Sievers, Henry Talbot, Mark Strizic, Norman Akin, Dacre Stubbs and Maggie Diaz.

'They were among Melbourne's leading commercial photographers during the 1950's and 60s, active in fashion illustration, advertising, architectural and industry photography.

The work featured highlights the strong connection between much commercial photography and the artist's eye."
