CHRIS KILLIP – NOW THEN
2017-07-10Poetic, penetrating, and often heartbreaking, Chris Killip’s In Flagrante remains the most important photobook to document the devastating impact of deindustrialization on working-class communities in northern England in the 1970s and 1980s.
The fifty photographs of In Flagrante serve as the foundation of this exhibition, which includes maquettes, contact sheets, and work prints to reveal the artist’s process. The show also features material from two related projects — Seacoal and Skinningrove — that Killip developed in the 1980s, included selectively in In Flagrante, and revisited decades later.
