Group Exhibition: The First Greenwich Annuale

20th - 25th August 2008

The Greenwich group of London Independent Photographers presents its first exhibition over the August bank holiday weekend at its monthly meeting place, the Viewfinder Photography Gallery.

The grand title Greenwich Annuale (shades of Venice-on-the-Thames) reflects the openness and inclusiveness of the group – anyone who had ever attended a Greenwich Group meeting was invited to enter one image, with each submitted image being accepted.

Over the past year members have shown work from the Peninsular and the Park, Creek Road and Kraków, Maze Hill and Mozambique, Croom's Hill and Colorado, Greenwich Reach and Gdansk; family homes and family albums; high noon and two in the morning.

London Independent Photography (LIP for short) is an informal group of over four hundred amateur and professional photographers of all ages, backgrounds and levels of expertise. For over twenty years its members have come together to build a programme of practical workshops, master classes, talks and exhibitions. Its satellite groups meet up each month in various homes, galleries, studios and pubs throughout London to share work, arrange exhibitions and talk photography.

The Greenwich LIP group, established in May 2007, is open to anyone, LIP member or not. Experience ranges from those who have spent a lifetime in photography, to those who spent last weekend and those still opening the box.

Number 1 exhibition to visit in the British Journal of Photography
