Photo of the week - Nadav Kander

Image copyright Nadav Kander

I went to the Lowry on Monday to see the Nadav Kander portrait exhibition. Frigging brilliant stuff. I generally find photographs of 'celebrities' a bit cliche. Kander's are quality. Simple as. They are creative, sinister, humorous, beautiful and epic all at the same time. I know it's a cheesy thing to say, and at the risk of sounding like an old lecturer of mine but "its all about the light". The above portrait of the iconic Sophia Loren was my personal favourite but they were all great photographs.

As previously mentioned, the works are on show at the Lowry until 4th September 2011 and its FREE in so go check them out. You need to see them in the fleash to fully appreciate them.
