Preview: Snap Lomographs
What do Pulp, Brian Eno, and Yasser Arafat have in common? Answer: they are all the proud possessors of a practically invisible, pretty automatic, super-tiny, nearly silent camera from Russia. As lomographers, their aim is to take as many lomographs as possible in the most unlikely situations and from the most unusual positions. The lomographs are then collected and assembled into lomowalls (above). It's fitting then, that Britain's first ever lomo exhibition is launched this week at London's Blue Note Gallery, featuring 20,000 lomographs, from local work to lomo-imports from around the world. Can't wait to see Yasser's contribution.
Blue Note Gallery, 1 Hoxton Square, N1 (0171-729 8440) 6 Apr-1 May
