Photographic Exhibition Chance to Barbican from a new angle 13 - Extended to 20 April

You might be inerested in this free photographic exhibition which extends over this weekend.
In addition to looking at the images you get a chance to see the Barbican from a different angle.

I took the picture below when I went to the last exhibition there


WHERE: Finsbury Tower, 103 Bunhill Row, Islington, London EC1Y 8ND

WHEN: Wednesday 13th extended to 20th April 2016, open daily from 10am to 3pm

WHAT: Performance was conceived early in 2012 as British excitement grew in anticipation of hosting the Olympics. Local sporting events were photographed as communities played their part in preparing for the Games. Our sports photographers have captured some of the tension, excitement and sheer spectacle of a remarkable sporting year.
Other photographers concentrated on artistic events, from dance and theatre to street performance and music. Strong images were produced with costume, make up and photo editing software.
This exhibition highlights the transitory nature of action-orientated photography.

COST: Entry is free - No tickets required

WHO: Anyone who you think may enjoy a photographic exhibition!
