Hamiltons Gallery in London is currently exhibiting Robert Frank's photographs until the 11th May, 2018. The exhibition will focus on a selection of exceptional and rarely seen Robert Frank prints, including pictures from Frank's influential visit to a coal-mining village in Wales, 1953. They appear alongside a selection of prints from his temporary stays in London, Paris and America, taken during the 1950s and early '60s. Frank's pursuit of a new form of expressionism through poetic, narrative photography is a common motif, as seen throughout the exhibition.
