God's Promises Mean Everything spans seven years in the life of Derek, a homeless hostel resident who lives in Teesside in the North East of England. After being granted permission by the hostel, Mark visited Derek 1-2 times a month - to drop off food or hang out, talk or just listen to music. These visits, this time spent in each others' company, became essential to the work and allowed Mark and Derek to develop a unique project that was full...

Dominoes is a unique and vibrant mosaic of the lives that float in and around a particular corner of Hackney in London's East End. The book is populated by intimate pictures of people who have experienced addiction and pain as well as the deep joys of the community of which they are a part. Gillett Square was derelict and underdeveloped for years until, in the 1990s it became an experiment in urban regeneration. Just like the Dominoes that are...

Paul Hart's latest body of work Fragile (2020-23) is a personal reflection on nature and was made in the landscape close to his home in England. The aesthetic is rooted in the notion of a heightened awareness of the natural world, of both a physical engagement and spiritual connection to the land. Whilst becoming absorbed in this instinctual, visceral approach, Hart has become acutely aware of both the physical beauty and delicate vulnerabilit...

Paddy Summerfield's 'The Beginnings Of Eternity', three years in the making, is his first published colour essay. It starts as an apparent travelogue: traffic and hedges, winter moon and July fields are glimpsed from a moving car. This repeated journey shifts through daylight and changing seasons, looping around local lanes and streets, then entering domestic spaces, into a final garden brilliance. Summerfield has always been a story-teller, i...

During the 1948 Palestine war many Palestinians were forced to leave their homes. This same fate befell the desert tribes of the Bedouin, but their strong bond with the desert - the heart of their culture - could not be broken. Yet, today, the number of Bedouin people inhabiting their original territories is shrinking, and many are gradually losing their distinct identity. Born of Sand and Sun is not a conventional depiction of the life of a n...

On March 6th 1984 miners at Cortonwood Colliery in Yorkshire went on strike. Six days later, on March 12th, NUM President, Arthur Scargill, made the strike official across Britain. And so began the UK's biggest strike since the General Strike of 1928. It ran for almost a year until March 1985 - a year of bitter conflict between the miners and Margaret Thatcher and her government and marked the end of the mining era in Britain. 24 year-old Mich...

A day by day record of the last year of the twentieth century.

It has been in print continuously since its first publication. This revised and extended edition includes more than 80 photographs and features many of Martin Parr's most iconic images. It is a biting, very funny satire in which Parr looks at tour...

Christer Strömholm is recognised as one of the major figures of 20th century European photography. Strömholm captured his surroundings in black‐and‐white images that display his integrity, understated humour and a highly personal aesthetic. With an unmistakable sensitivity to human suffering, based on his personal experience, he took photography in a new direction. Sean O'Hagan, writing in The Guardian, has described him "as the father of Swed...

Both deal with the pain of relationship, the seeming inevitability of separation and the mistrust that is its consequence. Women drift, lost and hostile, throughout the pages - they're masked or veiled, they stare from behind bars - sometimes metal, sometimes frail as gauze, or turn away, eyes averted. They are beautiful but isolated - the time for reconciliation has long passed. This isolation is reinforced by a sense of eroticised cruelty - ...

On 12th July 2013, a bomb exploded close to the Kanzul Iman mosque in Tipton, West Midlands. The bomb had been packed with nails. The police reported that it was only because the bomber had incorrect information about when Friday prayers would take place that the blast did not result in mass injuries. A week later, Pavlo Lapshyn, a Ukrainian student on a temporary work placement in Birmingham, was arrested and charged with the murder of 82 yea...

A powerful indictment of America's "civilizing" of the wildness of nature.

Those he chose have had a key role in history or the history of aviation (for example the Azores, which was a compulsory stop for transatlantic flights prior to 1970 and a military base in both World Wars). Almost all his images were produced at night, using the aprons¿ floodlights, moonlight, long or double exposures of between ten minutes to two hours. Some of the airports on the Azores archipelago are unique. They are amongst the very few b...

Traces takes us on a journey to the walnut forests of Kyrgyzstan, to the twisting tree-roots of Angkor Wat, to the chewing gum trees of Mexico, to the ancient olive trees of the Mediterranean littoral, and home to some of the oldest trees in England and Wales. It ends with the promised revival of the elm tree in Europe, and the ash tree in Britain.

A story of lives lived on hard streets, amongst staggering wealth and empty promises, told through photos, found text and first-person narratives.

Maya Art's work explores themes of femininity, religious syncretism and cultural diversity. In 2017, she spent a year in the Afro-Mexican village of Costa Chica. Oaxaca, in the home of Juliana, a lawyer and her teenage daughter, Veronica. It was Juliana who introduced her to the women of the community - healers, midwives, widows, single mothers and mothers with many children. They live relatively separately from men due to a local history of v...

This is a rural England that still exists - often little changed over the centuries. Gilson exploits the light, and the mist and cloud of winter landscapes to reveal a vision of England which can appear romantic, even nostalgic, yet it is nevertheless very real and contemporary.

Years Like Water is a decade-long look at a small Russian village, its inhabitants, ramshackle institutions, nature, and mythology. The series loosely follows the lives of four interconnected families, showing children grow up unsupervised in a magical wilderness, and adults struggle for survival in the same. For over ten years of visits, Sablin attended birthdays and funerals, drank tea with the grandmothers, and listened to stories of the vi...
