NOT JUST PICTURES – A life full of photographs and stories.
Limelight Gallery offered the “NOT JUST PICTURES” event to accompany Chris’ book of the same name at Deelenhaus in Paderborn, and many interested people came. The London curator Dave Brolan asked Chris about his career and a very amusing conversation developed, which one could have listened to for hours.
Afterwards, everyone went together to the Limelight Gallery, where some of his works are exhibited, and the evening ended with drinks, nice conversations and many signed books. WDR collected impressions and statements, we are very excited about the report!
Get in touch if you would like to purchase a book or even an original signed fine art print!
