Gallery 1885 News from The Camera Club
A brand new newsletter from Gallery 1885 at The Camera Club. Every month we will be in touch. We’ll talk about the current exhibition. We’ll talk about the next exhibition. We’ll talk about some of the best and most interesting exhibitions to see in London. We’ll maybe talk about other things as well…
But what we will definitely be doing is sharing some of the most interesting, exciting and inspiring photography around.

Gallery 1885: Stuart Hull
A Peculiar Moment in time
04 June – 01 July
June is Pride Month in the UK, one of the biggest events in the LGBTQIA+ calendar so it is entirely fitting that the next exhibition at Gallery 1885 is “A Peculiar Moment in Time” by Stuart Hull.
Stuart is probably best known for his subtle black and white portraiture, but this project is something of a departure for him. Shot entirely in colour, “A Peculiar Moment in Time - LGBTQIA+ Portraits of London” is an ongoing series of dramatic pictures documenting the queer/LGBTQIA+ community. Authentic, truthful and revealing, the exhibition portrays a combination of what is presented on the outside and what is often hidden on the inside.
The exhibition is opening on 04 June with an Open view on Friday 09 June to which everybody is invited.
It closes on 01 July which just happens to be Pride in London Day!
So, if you would like to see the diversity, vibrancy and tenderness of expression within the queer/LGBTQIA+ community of London, come along to the exhibition.

Avedon: Glamorous | Hamiltons Gallery
17 May – 11 August
If you have never seen the work of Richard Avedon, now is the time to catch up! Whilst Bailey, Donovan and Duffy were tearing up the rule book in the UK back in the Sixties, Richard Avedon was doing exactly the same across the Atlantic. The exhibition “Avedon: Glamorous” at Hamiltons Gallery is a celebration of his work.
With iconic and rarely seen photographs that focus on glamour, the exhibition shows Avedon’s unique ability to make the most mundane subjects appealing and brings a sophisticated glamour to some of the 20th century’s most notable figures.
