Unseen Guy Bourdin
May 13th, 2009 by ghboutique“Was an artist who used photograph to paint” says Jules Wright, director of The Wapping Project, about Guy Bourdin where a 32 of his previously unexhibited works are on show until 4 July.
About the Wapping Project (which some of you may know), it was The Wapping Hydraulic Power Station (image below after the jump) built in 1890. After its closure the building was converted and reopened as an arts centre (the Wapping Project) and restaurant (Wapping Food). Exhibitions are held in the basement and the main ground floor hall houses the restaurant. Some of the original equipment is still in place.
