Book Reviews of Chris Killip: In Flagrante (Books on Books)
Book Review: what a bargain for a terrific series
Summary: 5 Stars
The books on books volume on Chris Killip'modern classic, In Flagrante, is another great addition to a photography library. I am amazed at how reasonably priced these books are for all that they give you. They are beautifully printed and bound, and each, besides reproducing the books, provide an very thoughtful essay about the book, as well as information about the book and author. I read that Chris Killip was going to appear (and may have already appeared) at an event for the book, so it is clear that he believes in the project and its representation of his book and photographs, as does Martin Parr, who put this (and the volume on Fait) in his list of ten best photobooks of the year, as did photographer Andrew Phelps (of the photobook blog Buffet) and perhaps others as well. If you are serious about collecting photobooks, or just like to buy a few from time to time on a very limited budget, it is hard to beat the value and enjoyment this and the other volumes in the series will bring you. I think the publishers have done all of us who just get a lot of pleasure from terrific photobooks (and books in general) a great service by making this series available at such a reasonable price.
Summary of Chris Killip: In Flagrante (Books on Books)
Errata Editions' Books on Books series is an ongoing publishing project dedicated to making rare and out-of-print photography books accessible to students and photobook enthusiasts. These are not reprints or facsimiles but complete studies of the original books. Each volume in the series presents the entire content, page for page, of an original master bookwork which, up until now, has been too rare or expensive for most to experience. Through a mix of classic and contemporary titles, this series spans the breadth of photographic practice as it has appeared on the printed page and allows further study of the creation and meanings of these great works of art. Each volume in the series contains illustrations of every page in the original photobook, a new essay by an established writer on photography, production notes about the creation of the original edition and biographical and bibliographical information about each artist.Often referenced as the most important photobook to come out of England in the 1980s, Chris Killip's In Flagrante stands the test of time today. Published in 1988, In Flagrante shows the communities in Northern England that were devastated by the deindustrialization common to policies carried out by Margaret Thatcher and her predecessors starting in the mid-1970s. Books on Books 4 presents Killip's political yet lyric work along with a new essay, "Dispatches from a War Zone" by noted photo historian and critic Gerry Badger.
