Alan Schaller ‘Fleeting Moments’ exhibition, Fortnum & Mason

Curated by Emie Diamond, 25 never-before-seen black and white photographs by renowned monochrome photographer, Alan Schaller at Fortnum & Mason.

From ancient to present day, artists and people alike have sought to capture, distort, and re-create light. Parallels can be drawn between influential historical artists and their insatiable desire to experiment with light. Renaissance artist Michelangelo set out to portray heavenly, fictionalized light through inventive atmospheric effects, Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer explored how natural light responds to various materials, and Claude Monet was captivated by the absence of light.

Metro Imaging and Metro Framing have collaborated with photographer Alan Schaller in creating striking archival B&W Limited Edition prints. Metro Imaging is one of the few global imaging companies that produces genuine silver gelatin prints from digital files, achieving fully archival B&W prints from both film and digital origination.

The impressive collection of artworks are now on show at newly-redesigned 3’6 Bar and the exhibition runs until 31st July 2023.
