Chris Round - In Two Places
(C) Chris Round
English photographer Chris Round says the core of his photographic practice lies in "documenting post-natural, human influenced landscapes...these environments are dynamic and exciting because humans continually change their relationship with their surroundings serving up myriad new subject matter".
Round, who is now based in Sydney, held his first show in 2012 and has subsequently won various local and international awards. "In Two Places" he explores "the notion of place in the context of dual citizenship".
Until 1 November

Ruth Orkin - Retrospective
(C) American Girl in Italy (Florence), 1951
American photojournalist Ruth Orkin is considered one of the pioneers of the genre. Born in 1922, Orkin was taken with photography from the moment she was given her first camera at the age of 10. In 1939 she cycled across the USA from Los Angeles to New York for the World Fair, taking photographs of her unique “road trip”. In the 1950s she produced a series of photographs for a LIFE feature – Don’t Be Afraid to Travel Alone – a story about women travelling on their on in post-war Europe.
But Orkin is best known for her two bodies of work which became highly acclaimed books - A World Through My Window and More Pictures from My Window – featuring images she shot from the balcony of her New York apartment opposite Central Park, images of the passing parade of life that are now historical records of an era long past.
