Parisian images in London

Harold ChapmanDeal's veteran photographer Harold Chapman is showing his work at an exhibition in London at the gallery Proud Chelsea in the King's Road.

Harold's Beat Hotel pictures depict life in Paris in the late 1950s and early 1960s when writers, poets and artists lived in the city's Latin Quarter.

He chronicled the life and times of his fellow residents, among them William S. Burroughs and Alan Ginsberg.

The photos have their first London showing from July 29 for a month and the photographer has been interviewed for national newspapers about his long career. He is also to be heard soon on the Front Row an arts programme on BBC Radio 4.

Mr Chapman, of Bulwark Road, regularly writes for the East Kent Mercury's Those Were The Days feature, often remembering his childhood in Deal.
