An article today in London's Metro newspaper refers to a photography exhibition : Colin O'Brien Retrospective 1954 - 2004.

The photographer is described as a cross between Bill Brandt and Henri Cartier - Bresson. Photos feature scruffy street urchins against graffitti scrawled walls & down at heels whiling away their days on a park bench. "Occasionally, there is wit in the observation. A picture of Morrissey in concert is angled so you view a huge screen showing him in unflattering close-up. Taken this year, this is Morrissey: The Las Vegas Years - sweaty jowls and middle-aged paunch, but still with vestiges of what made people swoon"

The exhibition is on until 5th September at the gallery@oxo, Oxo Tower Wharf, London SE1 (nearest tube Waterloo). Might be worth a look!

    There is no such thing as an unflattering picture of Morrissey.

  • I have been to the exhibition myself, and seen the Photograph in question, the review in The Metro, a free London Paper was unnecessarily bitchy about Moz, he looks damn fine, and it's an excellent photo, I've forwarded it to this site and hope David posts it, For those who are interested, the Moz Print is for sale at £125.00, it's A Professional 16 x 12 inch Silver Gelatin print and there are postcards of the Moz pic for sale at £1.00 inc p+p in U.K
