The 80´s Photographing Britain, Tate Gallery, UK
21 November – 05 May 2023
Tate Britain presented The 80s: Photographing Britain, a major survey of a decade that proved pivotal for photography. Bringing together nearly 350 images and archival materials, the exhibition explored how photographers used the camera to respond to profound social, political and economic change. Zak Ové’s contribution included black-and-white photographs such as The Dancer, London Bridge, which reflect the vibrancy and shifting identities of multicultural London in that era. Through works like these, the exhibition revealed how photography became a vital tool for social representation, cultural celebration and artistic expression during one of the medium’s most dynamic and creative periods.
