A journey through the the noughtiest of noughties London after dark through the photographs of the snappers who documented the looks the morning after online.

Roll up! Roll up! Noughties nostalgia is upon us already. Rock up to Rich Mix, travel through the wilds of Boombox, Anti-Social and Circus and relive the raucous, anarchic bonhomie that defined the decade's clubland.

 

Curated by LCF's Antony Price, the exhibition showcases the noughtiest fashion and music trends of the Noughties through the photographs of the notorious MegaMegaMega.com and weknowhatyoudidlastnight.com and the images of Billa Baldwin, WadeFletcher and other photographic magicians on the scene.

 

The neon regulars who illuminated even the darkest of London nights sit alongside the club kids making their first steps into the hallowed walls of the capital after night falls. The spirit of abandonment, exhibitionism and, above all, joy is manifest throughout.

 

The launch night of Noughties Nightlife on the 9 September includes an Anomalous Visuals AV set at 20.30 and a DJ set from Jim Warboy DJ at 21.30. Unleash your neon finery. This will be postmodern posturing at its best.

 

Also, Check out the Noughties Symposium on 22 September featuring Ted Polhemus, David Swindells and Mrs Jones.

 

The exhibition runs until 2 October.
