The Photography House is part of the Hanover Art Trail and has been open for the past five years.
My name is Bill Brandt. I am a Brighton-based photographer and own and manage the photography house.
Because of my background the house has always had a strong bias towards photography but in the early years I tried to exhibit a variety of different types of art: paintings, sculptures, jewellery, furniture etc. in an effort to make the exhibition as interesting to as many different people as possible. However in 2004 I decided to make it a photography-only venue with the idea that it would focus on its ‘core business’ and become the leading venue for the photographic arts within the Brighton open house community.
Generally I exhibit work from somewhere between 4 and 6 photographers at a time with the aim to have a good mix of colour and monochrome, digital and traditional. Each year there is a mix of established artists and newcomers, many of whom have never exhibited before.
