AWARDS

Let's Face It 7
Welcome to the 2011 London Photographic Association awards for portraiture. The images in this online gallery illustrate the breadth of skill contained within the LPA. Entrants were asked to interpret the brief as they wished, and the result is the images you see on this site. The photographers have stayed true to everything which defines great portraiture: intelligent character studies based on intimacy and intrigue.

We were delighted to receive entries from 16 countries representing a wide range of photographic styles, background and influences. Entries came from commercial and fine-art photographers, mirroring the reach of the LPA within today's photographic practice.

The LPA extends its thanks to all the photographers who entered the 2011 London Photographic Association awards for portraiture. An extended gallery and the winners portfolios can be seen on our website.

EXHIBITIONS

LPA Exhibition - October - November 2010

Artist Sue Golden has curated a photographic art exhibition for LPA/Gallery 1839 opening in Soho, London on the 6th October. In this exhibition, called Strange Bedfellows, the tapestry of life is exposed with all its complexities. Here the everyday contrasts with the enigmatic and exceptional, the obvious with the unusual. What’s particular in this presentation is the questions the image groupings provoke - what does a beguiling hybrid feline Tokyo Sphinx cat have to do with a Korean man dressed as a female British noblewoman? Perhaps a commonality of isolated lives…

Strange Bedfellows is a contemporary, eclectic mix of international photographers’ images. Golden has utilised her work experience, artistic perception and a ‘catholic’ eye in choosing a diverse range of images and combinations. Extensive research was undertaken from the sites resulting in a striking conceptual show that relates to the highs and lows of modern times: the contrasts and disparities, the illusions and realities, the unconventional and the ordinary.

All the photographs have been chosen from the fine art, commercial, established and up-and-coming photographers’ collections at the London Photographic Association and Gallery 1839.
