Abstract

Early photographic work from Billingham's series 'Ray's a Laugh' was exhibited in 'Real Families', The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK, curated by Prof Susan Golombok (6th October 2023 - 7th January 2024). 'Real Families' was a collaboration between the Fitzwilliam Museum and the University of Cambridge Centre for Family Research (CFR). The focus of the exhibition was on the past 50 years, a period of significant change in how families are created and structured. Historical works were woven into the exhibition to examine what is universal, and what is genuinely new, about the family. What is a family? And how is family experienced? These questions were explored through artists’ eyes, and were at the heart of the exhibition which included painting, photography, sculpture, video, and material culture associated with representations of family life. The curator Susan Golombok is Professor Emerita of Family Research, and former Director of the Centre for Family Research, at the University of Cambridge.
