Movement of the People

05.10.2012 | Blog | BY:

If you’re stuck for something to do this weekend then check out the Barbican’s latest exhibition Everything Was Moving. Each image, hived off from the Sixties and Seventies is as exciting as the period it documents. All together it’s a picture of a time of political turbulence and bygone style the world over.

It’s also a celebration of the golden age of film photography before digital imagery mapped our world and everyone became a photographer. The result is a diorama of photos that delight in the moment and have a real sense of spirit and are sure in their sheer volume to overwhelm.

Everything Was Moving: Photography From the 60s and 70s is on until 13 January.
