Photographer Glenn Edwards` first introduction to Africa came in 1993 when he covered the Somali Famine for The Independent. Since then he has made over 80 trips to 18 African countries, as well as undertaking commissions in India, South America, the Middle East and troubled European countries such as Albania and Bosnia. This exhibition shows many facets of the Africa he has come to know; a vibrant but troubled continent of extremes and home to 15% of the world’s population. Glenn Edwards studied under Magnum photographer David Hurn from 1983-1985. A former staff photographer at the Western Mail, he now works freelance for national newspapers and magazines in addition to pursuing his own projects. He was UK News Photographer of the Year in 1998.
