Dorothy Bohm is one of the great doyennes of International photography. This exhibition follows her major retrospective at Musee Carnavalet, Paris.

When exhibited at Ben Uri, Dorothy Bohm said:

“Having enjoyed working so closely with the Ben Uri Gallery and Museum on my Ambiguous Realities exhibition; it was impossible not to recognise the passion and vision of the London Jewish Museum of Art and quite how such a small team generate such a varied and demanding programme. I don’t know how they do!.

"I have watched Ben Uri’s international reputation grow over the past fivie years and I want to demonstrate my support by donating the proceeds from all sales to their exhibition programme, so young artists get continued support in the museum’s programme.

"I am delighted and honoured they are recognising my contribution in the April series of three contemporary exhibitions titled ‘Journeys'...

"I hope my gesture will stimulate other established artists to support and contribute to Ben Uri, either by donating important examples to the museum’s wonderful collection, and, or like myself, offering to donate the proceeds of the sale of part or all of an exhibition.”
