Mervyn Bishop - Close Up

A rare glimpse behind the lens of one of Australia's most important photographers.

Mervyn Bishop is one of Australias most important photographers. His extraordinary archive of more than 200,000 images makes a landmark addition to the State Library of NSW's collection.

Mervyn Bishop: Close Up celebrates the historic moments and pivotal people he famously captured, while exploring the private influences that shaped his groundbreaking career.

This intimate exhibition offers a rare glimpse of the man behind the lens and honours the enduring legacy of Australia's first Aboriginal press photographer.

The Library would like to thank Mervyn Bishop and his family for trusting us with their stories.

Please be aware that this exhibition includes names and photographs of people who are now deceased.
