The 80s are back

_R8H1204

This is one of the behind-the-scenes shots taken for our upcoming exhibition The 80s are back. This was taken in our conservation photography lab as we were using the photographic studio to shoot the audio-visual content that will be featured in a special display in the gallery.

This exhibition will explore the decade’s styles, trends and subcultures, and how they found expression in fashion, design, music, film and television. Keep an eye on our 80s blog where you can nominate someone who was prominent in the 80s for a Q&A series that we will feature online
