Alan Dimmick: Photographic Archive
Alan Dimmick has been photographing Glasgow and beyond since 1977 when he was 16. His archive has grown to around 100,000 images and is ever growing. The work up to the year 2000 has been digitised and catalogued. A selection can be seen on alandimmick.com – This represents about the half way mark.
Alan will be in his studio on the 3rd floor on the 19th September from 11am till 4pm and will have photographs available to view and talk about his work and archive. The reception desk will be open but possibly best to call him on 07785744643 and he can show you upstairs to his studio.
