a photography exhibition exploring the 'dying art' of market pitching.

Venue: King's College Conference Centre,
James MacKay Hall,

'Life's a Pitch! And Then You'd Buy’ captures an era in which market pitching was a common sight on markets throughout the UK.

Organised by Dr Colin Clark, from the University of Aberdeen’s Business School, the exhibition features photographs taken as part of a research project between 1984 and 1994.

It is supported by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and forms part of the organisation’s nationwide Festival of Social Science week, running from Nov 3-10, which offers a wide variety of insights into some of the country's leading social science research and how it influences our social, economic and political lives.

The exhibition will run until mid-December 2012.
