The Launch of the Martin Osner Exhibition at Cameraland
Back to Blog |On Thursday 21 April, we hosted a retrospective evening showcasing pieces from three of Canon Explorer Martin Osner's collections. Guests enjoyed complimentary drinks and canapés, followed by a talk by the artist discussing, "What is Fine Art Photography?”
Full album can be viewed over on our Facebook Page.
Collections currently being exhibited:
The ABANDONED Collection: A decade-long project that highlights the disposable and excessive “throw-away” nature of modern society. With consumerism at an all-time high, homes and lives are filled with the latest and greatest indulgences and technologies soon to be replaced with newer and more desirable ones. This project is an ode to the forgotten and discarded items, readily tossed aside to make room for the shinier, bigger and better. The intrinsic beauty of the once-loved and now ABANDONED is expertly captured by Martin | Prints limited to 35 copies regardless of the size of reproduction.
The FACELESS SOCIETY Collection: Each day, week and year society adds to the layers of adverts, news clippings and pinups that plaster the walls and subways of the city. This collection looks at the ever-changing nature of our society and how time will be the inevitable judge of the success and failure of the faces forever idolised on our walls.
The DOWNTOWN Collection: A quirky look at the rhythms of inner-city life, featuring street art. Using high dynamic range photography, three exposures have been combined where moving subjects have been purposely misaligned to capture a feeling of energy.

Exhibition may be viewed anytime during trading hours before 27 May 2016
