| Tim Foster's photographic work has taken him to some strange and unusual places - Madagascar with Unicef, the inside of James Dyson's office, face to face with Richard Rogers - but none so strange as when he followed nine real-life superheroes doing their everyday jobs. 'Superman's Pockets' is the result. A collection of beautiful images picturing Angle-Grinder Man, Dougy Small aka Superman and Supertranny among the heroes on Britain's streets; American comic book characters given a distinctly English eccentricity. The exhibition at No 1 Piazza is also a rare chance to see inside the beautiful historic building where Elton John recently held one of his VIP parties. |
