Beezer’s Bristol Through the Lens at M Shed

About

Step into the wild heart of 1980s Bristol, an era of rebellion, creativity, and unforgettable street culture, through the iconic lens of photographer Beezer.

Bristol Museums are proud to celebrate the launch of Beezer’s legendary documentation of Bristol’s youth, music, and protest scenes in his new book, Until Now. From the explosive days of the St Pauls riots to the electric energy of underground gigs, Beezer’s camera captured the city’s raw spirit and the faces that shaped a generation.

Talks & Q&A

Hear from Beezer himself about the stories behind the powerful images – moments of joy, rage, and unity that defined a city on the edge of change. Dive into the legacy of 1980s Bristol as David Corio, Beezer and Pete Webb discuss the DIY ethos of the era, and the lasting impact of Bristol’s subcultures.

Soundtrack

Experience the music that fuelled the movement, from punk and reggae to the birth of the Bristol Sound while you sample a drink from the bar.
