If you happen to be around London over the next couple of months, I’d highly recommend going to The Photographers’ Gallery near Oxford Street to catch this (rare) exhibition of Gregory Crewdson’s new series of photographs.
And, though they look more like paintings by Hopper, these are photographs. The technical set-ups for each shot require Hollywood style crews of people, and as highly staged, meticulously planned pictures, these are far from ‘in the moment’ snaps… but the effect is extraordinary, and the sense of place incredible. Well worth it.
