SUMMARY:Permanent Exhibition: Julia Margaret Cameron
DESCRIPTION:Julia Margaret Cameron (1815 – 1879) was one of the most important early photographers and is now recognised the world over as a pioneer of photography as art. \nA woman ahead of her time\, she was ambitious and freethinking when most Victorian women were passive and demure. She took on the challenges of handling large cameras and dangerous chemicals at a time when photography was known as ‘The Black Art’. \nIgnoring conventions\, she experimented with composition and focus. Today she is credited with creating the first photographic close-up portraits and influencing the subsequent Pictorialism movement with her use of diffused focus. \nHer portraits of ‘famous men and fair women’\, reflect her time within the Freshwater Circle\, the birth of celebrity and her ambitions to be recognised as significant artist of her time. \nThe majority of her photographic work was created here at Dimbola. Her work is found in major archives the world over including our own growing Permanent Collection.

SUMMARY:Mini Iconic Bowie – Terry O’Neill
DESCRIPTION:Dimbola Museum & Galleries are honoured that Iconic Images have kindly agreed to loan us photographs of David Bowie taken by the late Terry O’Neil left over from our Iconic Bowie exhibition is 2019. \nOver a 20-year period\, O’Neill captured Bowie’s shapeshifting artistry better than just about anybody else. \nO’Neill’s photographs have left such a lasting impression because he was able to demystify some of the 20th century’s biggest icons. \nBy the time O’Neill started shooting Bowie during his Ziggy Stardust tour in 1973\, he was much a respected name in photography. \nCurrently exclusive to Dimbola in the UK\, the limited editions images are available to purchase. For more information please email admin@dimbola.co.uk

SUMMARY:Kathleen Holloway: Sea Change
DESCRIPTION:Kathleen Holloway is a multi-genre photographer whose images range from street photography\, still life\, and photo abstractions. She has studied at The International Center of Photography and Penumbra Foundation\, both in New York City\, as well as The Art Institute of Seattle in Washington state. \nAfter graduating\, she pursued a career as a photo editor in publishing and the entertainment industry. With an over 20 year career of hiring photographers\, producing photo shoots and as a retoucher\, Kathleen has moved on to the next phase of her career\, showing her own work. Recent solo exhibitions include Gallery 178 and The Dyckman Farmhouse Museum in 2023 both in Manhattan. Her work was also featured in NoMAA Women in the Heights: Dress at the NoMAA Gallery\, New York\,  was a selection for the 19th National Photography Competition at Fotofoto Gallery\, in Huntington\, NY\, and featured in the 20th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards for Women in Photography held at FotoNostrum Mediterranean House of Photography\, in Barcelona\, Spain. She is also a member of Soho Photo Gallery in New York City. \n“I’ve always had a love for art and photography\, since my father taught me the basics on his Pentax K1000 when I was a child. His experience and passion as a commercial artist encouraged me as I took my first steps to becoming a photographer. \nOver the last few years I have started experimenting with panoramic 35mm and medium format film photography and exploring historical printing techniques like cyanotype and platinum/palladium. I am continually interested in learning new ways to capture the world around us.” \nSea Change is a personal photo project inspired by her father-in-law’s love of sailing and his struggle with dementia. Photographing nautical items like fishing nets\, stony beaches\, and weathered ropes from around the shores of Britain\, she reflects each frame back to itself to reimagine patterns\, textures\, and colours making the familiar seem unfamiliar.  \n

SUMMARY:CJ Nox: The Beauty Of...
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to currently have a display of beautiful prints by CJ Nox Photography in our shop. All for sale\, starting from £55. Come and take a look! \n\n“CJ Nox is a visual storyteller rooted in the natural rhythms and quiet beauty of the Isle of Wight. A lifelong creative with a background rich in varied experiences\, CJ returned to the Island in search of a slower\, more intentional way of seeing—and of living. Accompanied by his loyal dog Beans\, he roams coastlines\, forests\, historic towns\, and windswept cliffs\, capturing fleeting moments that many pass by unnoticed.\n\n\nHis exhibition\, The Beauty Of…\, reflects his core philosophy: that beauty is not a fixed destination\, but something shifting\, personal\, and ever-present in our daily surroundings. Whether through the geometry of local architecture\, the softness of evening light across the Solent\, or the wild stillness of a forgotten woodland path\, CJ’s work invites us to pause\, reframe\, and look again.\n\n\nAs a photographer and video creator\, CJ blends artistic observation with a deep sense of place. His vlogs explore not just locations\, but the stories\, atmospheres\, and emotions behind each frame. He encourages viewers and visitors alike to rediscover the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary—and to embrace the power of quiet moments.\n\n\nThrough both lens and life\, CJ Nox offers a gentle reminder: the world is always waiting to be seen anew.”\n\n\ncjnoxphotography.com
