Bill Jackson (photographer)

Bill Jackson (born 1953) is a contemporary English photographer.

Bill Jackson was born in 1953 and graduated from Coventry School of Art and Birmingham School of Art . He first exhibited at The Photographers Gallery in the exhibition "Fleeting Gestures" The History of Dance Photography selected by Bill Jay of the ICP Gallery in New York. In 1986 he began working with early computer graphic systems and by 1991 this experimental work using film and digital combinations were shown at a conference on the future of photography at the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television (now the National Media Museum) in Bradford. Jackson was one of the first UK film based photographers to go over to digital imaging in 1985/6. He lives and works in London. His work is in many private and art trust collections.

Photography

"Every now and then, with a bit of luck, an artist will produce exceptional work that immediately demands attention. This is the case with Bill Jackson’s Morphenia, a suite of sixteen computer generated digital prints." (Nick Smale - Artspace Magazine) "His imagery was as spiky, robust and eclectic as an Hieronymus Bosch and his use of colour and ornamentation as rich and luscious as any Dutch old master." (Peter McCarthy - Visual Arts Magazine")
