Don McCullin is one of Britain’s greatest photographers. He has travelled the world, capturing raw, powerful images of war, famine and disaster – but throughout his career he has also photographed his own country.
This exhibition presents a personal portrait of England, created during a period spanning over 50 years. It is a dark, often uncomfortable vision of a divided nation where the gulf between rich and poor remains as defined as ever.
However, McCullin balances his anger at social injustice with great humanity, compassion, lyricism and occasional humour.
To coincide with the exhibition opening, Don McCullin will be speaking at the National Media Museum on Friday 8 May.
