This first major solo exhibition of Tom Wood's work in the UK focuses on previously unseen portraits dating from the early 1970s to the early 2000s. The exhibition also features some of Wood's rarely seen book dummies -- including Looking for Love (1989), All Zones off Peak (1998) and Photieman , (2005) -- as well as a selection of vintage work prints, giving an overview of his important publishing output and an insight into his working methods. Wood has exhibited internationally including at the ICP, New York; the Shanghai Arts Biennale; FOAM, Amsterdam; and the Muse de l'Elyse, Lausanne, and his work is held in major
