5B4: Anna Fox: Photographs 1983-2007:

The work of Anna Fox may be off your radar but she is an important figure in British color photography that arose from the West Surry College of Art and Design in the mid 1980s. Her highly charged photographs, lit by flash, are a mix of social observation and personal diaristic projects which placed her apart from the male crowd of Paul Reas Martin Parr, and Paul Graham who were forming the ‘second wave’ of color photography. A recent mid-career retrospective book Anna Fox: Photographs 1983-2007 published from Photoworks covers 25 years of her work.
