GFT is welcoming director Paul Sng for a Q&A following the 8.30pm screening of his rousing new documentary Tish on Saturday 18 November.
Tish Murtha’s photography of people on the margins of society in Thatcher’s Britain challenged inequality, yet she was unable to escape the poverty she documented and died aged 56, her work relatively unknown. Tish follows her daughter as she revisits key images and moments in her mother’s life to establish her legacy.
By shining a light on a working class artist who went largely unrecognised in her lifetime, the documentary questions the value placed on working class people both in the past and present day.
‘A tremendous, humane tribute to a real artist.’ ★★★★
