World No. 1 Cycle Racing Photographer Englishman Graham Watson helps
Welcome the Tour de France to London with 30 Year Retrospective
Exhibition!
Born in London in 1956, Graham Watson took his first steps in
photography in 1972, working as an assistant to a London society
photographer whose clients included British aristocracy and foreign
royal families. Commuting to and from London each day by bicycle drew
Watson's attention to the sport of cycle racing and, eventually, to
see the Tour de France in Paris in 1977. Smitten by this sighting of
'Le Tour', Watson focussed all his energies on photographing what he
considered to be a 'beautiful' sport - to the point, in the early
1980s, where he was a regular feature at European races, and soon
gained access to the inner-sanctum of cycling photographers - a
largely Belgian/French/Italian clan.
Three decades later, Graham Watson, known and admired the world over,
will celebrate the London Grand Départ of the 2007 Tour de France with
an exhibition of over 200 of his finest Tour de France photographs
from the past 30 years.
The Eyes On The Tour de France Exhibition will be held from July 1-9
at County Hall Gallery in London's vibrant South Bank, next to the
London Eye overlooking the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben. Visitors
will be able to purchase framed archival Lambda Photographic Prints
from the Exhibition.
The Exhibition runs from July 1-9 and is open daily from 10am - 5.30pm
(except 5th July: 10am - 5pm). ENTRY IS FREE!!
