This event is part of our Past Programme

How to Win at Photography: Image-Making as Play is a multimedia exhibition exploring the relationships between photography, image-making and play.  It invites audiences to focus on the playful aspects of visual culture, and creates unexpected connections between the history of photography and the practices of image-making within computer games and wider digital screen culture. 

Featuring over 30 international artists and a rich assemblage of multimedia artworks and vernacular images representing a variety of positions across contemporary and twentieth century photography, How to Win at Photography questions the very meaning and function of photography today.

Join Jon Uriarte for an informal tour of the exhibition.

Jon Uriarte is Curator of Digital Programmes at The Photographers' Gallery. He is also curator of Getxophoto International Image Festival and has previously worked with different international institutions including Foto Colectania, Barcelona and Le Chateau D'Eau, Toulouse.
