The Genius of Photography. We are Family. Documentary series exploring the history of photography – from daguerreotype to digital, from portraits to photojournalism, from art to advertising. This part looks at what happens when the medium translates personal relationships into photographic ones; when strangers, celebrities, lovers and children are fed to the camera. It is also about what happens when photographers turn their cameras on themselves – what they choose to reveal and what they try to conceal.
Lee Miller: A Crazy Way of Seeing. Lee Miller led one of the most fascinating lives of the 20th century. A model for Vogue, pupil and lover of Man Ray in Paris and the only female photojournalist covering WWII, her work encompassed surrealist images and shocking reportage from Dachau. Having given up photography later, Miller’s archive of 40,000 negatives was only rediscovered after her death. George Melly, David Hare and others trace the story of her life through her own pictures, photographs of Miller and archive footage.
