Following the announcement of the Mobile and Social Stage, the Super Stage at The Photography Show has been announced with Albert Watson, Nadav Kander, Frans Lanting, Jill Furmanovsky, Clive Arrowsmith, David Alan Harvey, Julia Fullerton-Batten, Alex Webb and Louis Cole confirming appearances.

A talk by Albert Watson will explore his distinctive visual language and the stories behind his images while  Nadav Kander's interview with curator, William Ewing, will give an exclusive insight into his unique approach to photography.

Taking a retrospective look at his four decades as a photographer, Frans Lanting will divulge the secrets behind his recent Dialogues with Nature exhibition and Jill Furmanovsky, founder of the Rockarchive, will tell the tale of how it all began, including backstage narratives from her intriguing experiences. In addition, Clive Arrowsmith will present ‘Technique to emotion” talking about the journey he makes to produce images that draw in the viewer. 

Further sessions will feature legendary street photographer, David Alan Harvey (Magnum Photos), fine art photographer Julia Fullerton-Batten and documentary photographer, Alex Webb (Magnum Photos); each with huge back-catalogues, numerous award wins, exhibitions and magazine covers between them.

The 2017 Super Stage speakers follow in the footsteps of fellow photographers David Bailey, Rankin, the late Mary Ellen Mark, Don McCullin and Steve McCurry, all of whom have taken centre stage in previous years.
