Andrew Brooks Exhibition in Manchester

[JCollins1964]

I have previously seen the work of Andrew Brooks at Urbis in Manchester and it is truley outstanding and original. I would recommend this exhibition to everyone.

"New Worlds is a collection of composite photographic works by digital artist Andrew Brooks. The exhibition displays
a series of fifteen previously unexhibited photographs from around the world - shots that really capture the energy
and excitement of travel.

Images range from a hyper detailed cityscape of New York, crumbling industrial plants in the Australian outback,
the garish neons of Coney Island juxtaposed against the Baroque splendour of St Peter’s Basilica. Highly diverse,
the collection captures vivid moments of sublime beauty from a changing world.

Andrew explains: “I aim to show the definition, energy and movement of a place through still photography. To achieve this I build my images out of hundreds of captures giving me control over the light, detail and emotion of the finished pieces. My goal is to get somewhere near the sheer awe and scale you experience from looking on to a breathtaking view when you are actually there.”


The Exhibition is on at The Hive on Lever Street in Manchester until the 3rd of March.
