From Where I Stand reveals the very best work selected from Mary McCartney’s complete archive from the 1990s to date. This first solo exhibition of work at the gallery will coincide with the book launch of From Where I Stand produced by Thames & Hudson.

From portraits to photographs of the raw energy backstage and onstage at fashion shows, rock concerts, the theatre and ballet, as well as vignettes of the surreal and the curious, the exhibition always returns to the calm, private spaces of home and of family.

Mary McCartney – Paul and Linda McCartney’s daughter – started her career as a professional photographer in 1994. Her solo exhibitions, which have been shown internationally, include Off Pointe, Playing Dress Up and British Style Observed.
