WHAT'S ON / IMAGES BY DON MCPHEE

17 JUNE 2011 - 02 SEPTEMBER 2011

The collection of more than 50 prints put together with the help of the Guardian and now owned by Liverpool Hope University includes McPhee’s most famous shot in which a picket in a toy police helmet eyeballs a police officer at the Orgreave coking plant during the 1984 miners’ strike. McPhee produced hundreds of pictures of the strike, many of them reflecting the epic nature of the conflict between the state and the NUM. This exhibition includes iconic news pictures, portraits of politicians and affectionate shots of the people of the North.

Location: The Cornerstone Gallery
