Jonathan has been invited by Pete James, Head of Photographs at Birmingham Central Library and Ikon Gallery to talk about his work and its relationship to the pioneering work of Harold Edgerton. This new show pays reference to their first exhibition of his held in 1976. This was in fact the first European solo exhibition by the pioneering American scientist and photographer Dr Harold E. Edgerton.

I will post some more when I have some further information.

Jonathan has been invited to give a talk about his practice at Hogeschool Sint-Lukas Brussel. The talk will feature as part of a seminar series on Time and Photography being organised by Dr. Maarten Vanvolsem at the University.

Sint-Lukas Brussels University College of Art and Design was founded in 1880. It evolved from the Neo-Gothic arts and crafts schools built in the second half of the 19th century by the Brothers of the Christian Schools, an international teaching order founded by John Baptiste de La Salle over 300 years ago.

Gallery 13 seen here installed as part of the Time|Motion exhibition.

Gallery 13 is now back on show in gallery 20 at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery. 7 years after it was originally commissioned, shot, exhibited and subsequently acquired for the Museums collection.
