The Photograhic Exhibition of John "Hoppy" Hopkins

DATE 11 Sep 2009 - 7 Nov 2009 TIME 11:00 - 17:00
Please note this exhibition will be closed on Mondays and open at 12 noon on Sundays
Venue: Street Level Photoworks, ground floor


Taking Liberties is a photographic record and retrospective of the work of John ‘Hoppy' Hopkins from the period 1960 - 1966. It captures a culture on the cusp of radical change through the emerging counterculture which manifested itself in pop, protest and art. Included are iconic images of The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Dusty Springfield and Marianne Faithful.
A unique series of images capture the historic poetry convention at the Albert Halls in 1965, another of CND marches and anti racist demonstrations illustrating the power of popular protest. Alongside these are images of bikers at the legendary Ace cafe in London and a glimpse of the seediness of everyday life in Notting Hill.
As part of Trongate 103's First Thursday programme, Street Level will offer a free guided tour of the exhibition at 6pm, Thursday 5 November.

Are you really facinated with your home to remodel ,please contact :-The unique shot glasses must be made ready by taking the inputs of the entire group. It is a matter of great debate whether the people involved in the operation of the making of the shot glass will be taking the full inputs. The cheap shot glasses can be ordered online without much difficulty. The custom shot glasses will have to follow certain standards.
