The Photographers' Gallery Archive

Even though The Photographers' Gallery Archive does not have a photographic collection, our Archive is a free resource to dig into the rich and varied past of The Photographers’ Gallery and to support future learning about photography.

Material is regularly being digitised and catalogued, with new information, imagery and other material added to the collection on an ongoing basis. Find out more about The Photographers' Gallery Archive which includes a full list of our programming history.
