Exhibition : « Taking a Camera for a Walk. My First 60 Years on the Streets. » by John Williams
We are almost two weeks into John William's telling retrospective here at the gallery. John's exhibition spans over half a century of street photography from both Australia and abroad, with the earliest photograph in the exhibition taken in 1952.
