Zeitline: The incremental development of a photographer,by Roger Hutchings.This collection explores the concept of photographic style through Hutchings war photographs, glimpses into the world of fashion and later abstracted colour studies. How does style manifest itself across a wide range of subjects and evolve over time and experience? From serious reportage to contemplative colour images, signature ideas of geometry and intensity run through Hutchings work despite changing motivations and influences. As the title tells us, these photographs by Roger Hutchings are about time, and related matters. They remind us why photography is the preeminent visual medium for thinking about time’s strangeness. Many have tried to encumber it with a linguistic tense - Barthes tried the ‘aorist’, the ‘that-has-been’, but the complex idea of locating a present in the past really does dwell in the realm of images. As Zeitline so eloquently reminds us, the photograph’s role in remembering history and reconstituting memory is vital
