See the city through the eyes of its lively photography community.
As part of the exhibition New Light: Photography Now + Then, members of Brisbane’s photography community were invited to respond to the Elliott Collection. This collection comprises hundreds of photographs largely attributed to amateur photographer, Alfred Elliott (1870-1954). Traversing a variety of subjects, Alfred’s photographs capture Brisbane over a 50-year period (1890-1940).
Photographers of all levels were encouraged to study the photographs Alfred took of Brisbane’s urban landscape and consider his use of subject, composition and light. Then, they were invited to hit the streets and capture their own photograph of Brisbane’s built environment using their favourite camera.
More than 65 photographs were selected to form the Viewfinders display. This display looks beyond Alfred’s singular vision of Brisbane, reflecting the myriad perspectives through which people see and experience the city.
