Background information
'A1. The Great North Road' -- The debut photo book by Paul GRAHAM, self published as brochure. The British photographer travels the length of the A1 motorway from London to Edinburgh, capturing a transitory landscape of work and leisure.
"Social documentary in new colours, with sublime light effects, Vermeer-like precision and a submerged sense of loss." (© London Review of Books)
'Beyond Caring' -- The photo volume 'Beyond Caring' depicts the waiting rooms and corridors of unemployment offices around the UK, documenting the dehumanising realities of 1980s Britain.
"An empathetic document of a sudden, lurching change in Britain, which left many without a sense of purpose or economic security ... the vision of Britain in Beyond Caring seems as relevant as ever." (© The Independent)
'Troubled Land' -- A new edition of the classic documentary project by Paul GRAHAM depicting Northern Ireland at the height of the Troubles through the small but insistent signs of division embedded in its landscape.
"One of my favourite books on the Northern Irish Troubles, not least because it came at them sideways – highlighting the strange, normalised reality of a place that was anything but normal." (© Sean O’Hagan, The Guardian)
'Errata Books on Books #9 - Paul Graham. Beyond Caring' -- Books on Books #9 presents every page spread of Graham's controversial book along with a contemporary essay by writer and curator David Chandler.
