On the shelves of newsagents Source jostles for space with many other magazines that use photographic images for as many different purposes. Gavin Murphy in his commissioned essay explores the relationship between fine art photography (for want of a better expression) and commercial still life photography, as found in the 'lifestyle glossies'.

The exhibition is reviewed here by Fintan O'Toole who wrote the introduction to Parr's book about the West of Ireland A Fair Day in 1984.

These will be exhibited at the Old Museum arts centre in June as part of our on-going collaboration.
