Duffy by Giles Huxley-Parlour

Duffy was one of the most dynamic and inventive photographers of the 1960's. Together with his 'old muckers' Terence Donovan and David Bailey, he made up 'The Black Trinity', a sobriquet used by Norman Parkinson to describe his new, highly successful competition. Then, after more than twenty years at the cutting edge of photography, Duffy vanished from the industry. A rumour then spread that he had burned his negatives. Ever the anarchist, Duffy had indeed begun this destructive, yet cathartic procedure one afternoon in 1979. However, not all the negatives were destroyed. Now, after nearly three years of painstakingly archiving the surviving images, "Duffy" will display his photographs for the first time. The exhibition will contain 60 virtually unseen portraits, fashion photographs, and personal pictures by the man who, along with his two friends, helped revolutionize the photography business. It is an extraordinary body of work that powerfully documents the vibrancy of London in the 'Swinging 60s'.
