Behind the Barber

A Photographic Odyssey

 

Over the past eight months, professional photographer Pete Marshall has been building up a photographic portrait of the Barber Institute – its public and behind-the-scenes spaces, its events and activities, its staff and visitors.

 

This fascinating project, which reveals the Barber in a sometimes surprising new light, culminates here in a photographic installation of reportage-style images. With views of itself projected continuously in one of its own galleries, the installation adds another dimension to the physical and conceptual identity of the building.
