Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Archaeology in Reverse Stephen Gill Special Edition Limited to 100 copies Signed and numbered with a C-Type Print Afterword by Iain Sinclair ?Stephen Gill has learnt this: to haunt the places that haunt him. His photo-accumulations demonstrate a tender vision factored out of experience; alert, watchful, not overeager, wary of that mendacious conceit, ?closure? There is always flow, momentum, the sense of a man passing through a place that delights him. A sense of stepping down, immediate engagement, politic exchange. Then he remounts the bicycle and away. Loving retrievals, like a letter to a friend, never possession? What I like about Stephen Gill is that he has learnt to give us only as much as we need, the bones of the bones of the bones?? - Iain Sinclair Continuing to photograph where his award-winning book Hackney Wick left off, Stephen Gill has made Archaeology in Reverse in his cherished area in East London. Still making pictures with the camera he bought at Hackney Wick market for 50p, this time he focuses on things that do not yet exist. This magnificently produced book features traces and clues of things to come in a poetic, sometimes eerie and quiet photographic study of a place in a state of limbo prior to the rapid transformation that this area faces during the build-up to the Olympics in 2012. 114 pp / Hardback 104 Colour Illustrations 216mm x 216mm Published by Nobody ISBN 978-09549405-6-0.
