This resource could be used in the classroom, or on a group trip to visit one of the Brighton Photo Biennial 2016 exhibitions.
The seventh Brighton Photo Biennial (BPB16), Beyond the Bias – Reshaping Image, focussed on identity and understandings of our personal and projected image as influenced by the pervasive genre of fashion and style photography. The festival explored photography’s role in defining and informing our understandings of subjects such as: gender and sexuality, the representation of the body, the politics of style, subcultures and the subversion of social and cultural norms.
