Famous Photos
Terry Jones Monty Python. Part of the Keith McMillan: A time and a place’, an exhibition of over 60 black and white photographs at Cairns Regional Gallery from Friday 28th March at 6.30pm.
Cairns Regional Gallery is proud to present a photographic exhibition by Keith McMillan - one of Britain's most recognised and prolific socialite photographers.
Keith McMillan: A time and a place documents the cultural shift in 1960s Britain, where, with 40 per cent of the population aged under 25 years, the country resonated with liberalisation of laws, anti-establishment behaviour and prosperity.
In an eventful life, which started as a ballet dancer, included a period of armed service and culminated in working in the circle of some of Europe’s greatest, McMillan’s work represents three fascinating decades of change in Britain.
Comedian John Cleese, Baroness Margaret Thatcher and artist Man Ray are some of the identities featured in the exhibition of more than 60 photos.
"Today’s photographers have a great advantage with the technology of modern times, and to me it looks like there are no boundaries," Keith says.
"However, photography is never static and hopefully my images can be appreciated as fine examples from a different time and a different place."
Keith McMillan: A time and a place will be officially launched by artist Bob Marchant, on Friday, March 28 at 6.30pm, following an artist talk. It remains on show until May 4.
