30 <\/strong>– photographic show at the Shoreditch Town Hall, London, open 10-6 until 2 May 2009, is a show by 30 photography students from the University of Westminster<\/em>, where ‘producing a photographic show’ was a module on their course.<\/p>\n

You can see some of their names with an example\u00a0 of their work on the 30 blog<\/a>,\u00a0 and if you are anywhere within distance I think it’s a show worth seeing, both for the impressive range of work on display, but also for the location itself.<\/p>\n

Where else can you see a film of a bride and groom projected above a urinal, images made to fit in a room with the floor half dug up and a large brown earthenware pipe and much much more, and some of the pictures simply pinned up on decaying walls are well worth a look.\u00a0 This was an exhibition I really enjoyed visiting, which is more than you can say for many at more prestigious venues. It has a liveliness that makes the current offering at the Photographers’ Gallery I visited the previous day seem extremely sad.<\/p>\n

It’s good also to see a student show with such a wide range of work, rather than some that seem to be largely a series of clones of a particular tutor or small group of tutors.\u00a0 There is certainly a lot of talent here, though perhaps a little depressing to reflect that with the current state of the market for photography nearly all of them will end up doing other things for a living. Of course that isn’t necessarily a bad thing and I’m sure that photography will continue to enrich the lives of many of them – and of others who will continue to enjoy their work.<\/p>\n

Don’t put off going to see this – it ends this Saturday. Here are a few of the pictures I took of the location and the work on display.<\/p>\n
