"The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated, 128-page catalogue with an essay by the curator Russell Ferguson, short biographies for the 24 artists featured in the exhibition, and a complete exhibition checklist. In the essay, Ferguson discusses the rise and fall of the pictorial in photography in the early 20th century and how the spontaneous style of street photography came to dominate the medium, before looking at the return of considered composition from the late 1970s onward.
