'Tom Hunter: Living in Hell and Other Stories'
National Gallery 7 December 2005 - 12 March 2006
Tom Hunter's new work for this exhibition at the National Gallery in London takes as its subject the lives of the ordinary residents of Hackney, as reported in local newspapers.
These often startling stories are told in carefully staged photographs derived from Renaissance paintings.
Hunter's reputation has been established with a series of engaging, puzzling and provocative photographic reworkings of paintings from the past.
