DESCRIPTION:
For his first book, this prize-winning young artist has produced a documentary "sitcom" celebrating the working-class family, offering lushly colored glimpses of "the communal spirit." 50 photographs.. Nick Waplington is a major new discovery in the world of photography
This is a classic of English photography that is unique Simon P Murphy This is a classic of English photography that is unique in its highly subjective insider perspective. There are other photographers who have attempted to show working-class life in England, but the result is usually distant and intellectualized with a hint of social work. These images have the appearance of social intimacy and as a result the appearance of authenticity. As Avedon suggests in his introduction, Waplington would have a difficult time in achieving this level of emotional impact in his subsequent work.
