MK Gallery - Jacques Henri Lartigue: Life in Colour

20 June - 4 October 2026
This is the first UK public exhibition of Lartigue’s work for over 10 years. It focuses on an exceptional and little-known aspect of his work: until recently, the majority of his colour photographs had never been seen. The exhibition features more than 150 items including early stereoscopic images producing three-dimensional effects, vintage prints, unique works on paper, archival documents, lightboxes and projections. It also showcases Lartigue’s career from drawings made as a child in the 1900s to the fashion world of the 1960s and late abstractions of the 1980s.

Exhibition organized in collaboration with the Association des Amis de Jacques Henri Lartigue, Ministère de la Culture, France and diChroma photography.
Payment of £1 for MK residents (proof of residency required) and booking can be done online.
We meet outside and then after the walk round for refreshments in their lovely cafe.
