Robert Doisneau’s images have today become synonymous with Paris: even if you haven’t heard his name before, you’re bound to have seen reproductions of his work on calendars, notebooks and postcards. However, there hasn’t been a serious retrospective of his work in the UK since 1992 and so the Michael Hoppen Gallery’s exhibition this winter is both timely and refreshing. By displaying rare vintage prints of Doisneau’s photographs alongside a retrospective of contemporary, award-winning photographer Jason Langer’s urban portraits and nudes, Secret City encourages comparisons between both artists and their aims, drawing out striking similarities and differences in their portrayal of urban life.
