Giles Clarke: Selected Stories - New York-based Getty Reportage photojournalist Giles Clarke, who grew up on the Island, returns to present a site specific exhibition of images curated from a global catalogue of projects exploring, primarily, humanitarian issue awareness in troubled regions.

Tonight we joined Giles Clarke, in conversation with Paul Armfield, for an artist talk, short film screening of the acclaimed ‘The Guardian Angel Of Guatemala’ followed by a Q&A session discussing his work. The eve was brought to an upbeat end with an auction of two signed works.

Intense and incredibly moving, the work of Giles Clarke is impossible to forget. Giles talked candidly about his experiences in these troubled parts of the world and the power of the human stories that he uncovers. Acting as the 'eyes of the world', Giles plays an important part in raising awareness and giving a voice to the victims of wrong.
