Troubled Land deals with the small but insistent signs of deep political division within the landscape of Northern Ireland at the time of the "troubles." Avoiding both cliches of sensationalist urban mayhem, or escapist rural idyll, the images flow from inner city through the fringe towns and villages, and out to the countryside, concentrating in each case upon the visual footnotes of the conflict. One of the three books of Graham's work that redefined the European approach to documentary photography.
Oversized trade paperback. Photographs by Paul Graham; Essays by Declan McGonagle and Gerry Badger. 80 pages; 33 full-page color photographic plates; 12 x 9 inches.

Quer-4°. [36] Bl. mit 32 Farbtafeln. Farbig illustr. OKart. Erste Ausgabe. - "The third book by English photographer Paul Graham concentrates on land and cityscapes of Northern Ireland, showing with understatement, the small but persistent signs of deep political unrest within the region. From grafitti paint spelling out IRA to political signs and flags, Graham gives us a perspective of the land seldom seen. No out-and-out violence is shown here, just the subtle reminders of a land troubled with seemingly unending political turmoil and division. Each of these color photographs includes these reminders in a straight, documentary fashion to give us a real look at the day-to-day landscape of Northern Ireland. Highly recommended" (lensculture). - Tadellos. Sprache: englisch. Seller Inventory # 103079BB

Soft Cover. Condition: Near Fine. Graham, Paul (photographs) (illustrator). First Edition. Previous owner's bookplate to front end paper. No marks or inscriptions. Extremely faint crease to front cover, none to rear or to spine. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. 80pp. This work of full-page colour photographs by Paul Graham deals with the small but insistent signs of deep political division within the landscape of Northern Ireland in the 1980s. 'The foreword by Declan McGonagle contrasts the work against the melodramatic imagery of the North and places the Troubles in a broader framework of the marginalisation and denial of power that has been the hallmark of British cononialism for centuries. The main text by Gerry Badger examines the genre of reportage photography and positions this work within a new generation of intelligent documentary photography that represents ideas rather than furnishing simple visual records or illustrating words.' We do not use stock photos, the picture displayed is of the actual book for sale. Every one of our books is in stock in the UK ready for immediate delivery. Size: 9 x 11.75 inches.
