Oxford Exhibition
22 images Created 9 Feb 2010
Richard Baker's exhibition draws from his work with writer Alain de Botton's book project The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work (Penguin 2009).
The 16 images are captioned by selected text from de Botton's writing from the book's chapters and provided courtesy of the writer. They are paired by subject and offer a rather different context from the book although many did not make it into print.
The venue is the Museum of the History of Science, Broad Street, Oxford and full directions can be seen here: http://www.mhs.ox.ac.uk/about/location-and-directions/
The pictures and the in-laid text are for sale and you can reserve by emailing me at richard@bakerpictures.com
Both Alain and I would be delighted by your visit and I'm happy to answer questions though I'm giving a talk at the Museum on June 8th about the project and my other photography projects.
