Explore Liverpool's architecture through photography.This photography workshop takes its inspiration from our ARTIST ROOMS: Ed Ruscha display to explore Liverpool’s urban landscape. Streets and buildings are a popular subject in photography, and many cities have become known through iconic images of historic landmarks.
You will be introduced to the fascinating practice of architectural photography by photographer James O. Davies, who will share tips and tricks for best practice. You will take a walking tour across the city of Liverpool and learn how to compose your own pictures of the built environment. There will also be an opportunity to engage with Ed Ruscha’s photographic work, in an exclusive curator’s tour of the display.
The workshop is suitable for photographers at all levels, including beginners. You will need to bring your camera or phone camera. Assistance on how to use your device will be provided.
