Michel Campeau's Darkroom is the first title in an important new series of books edited by Martin Parr with the aim of presenting work that has never before been published in book form. Parr, whose work itself is the subject of over 30 books, and who has built perhaps the most comprehensive private collection of photography books in the world, will select two artists each year for this series over the next five years. Michel Campeau's Darkroom series is an evocative set of images rising from visits to over 75 darkrooms in his native Canada; it is a fascinating tribute to an increasingly rare working environment.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Photographically illustrated paper-covered boards; no dust jacket as issued. Photographs by Michel Campeau. Introduction by Martin Parr. 80 pp., with 70 four-color plates. 12 x 12 inches. New in publisher's shrink wrap. From the publisher: "'For a photographer like myself, who in fact has not worked in a darkroom for over years, these images are horribly familiar. Those fix stains in the sink, the eerie red light, reminiscent of a brothel, the wonky enlarger and a profusion of different tapes holding the whole thing together. I feel lucky to have escaped and yet there is something very alluring about these images.' -- from the introduction by Martin Parr. Darkroom is the first book in a series edited by Martin Parr, for Nazraeli Press, with the aim of presenting work that has never before been published in book form but which most definitely 'should have been.' This evocative set of images has risen from visits to over darkrooms in Campeau's native Canada, and while it might be a stretch to imagine a less promising subject matter, the end result is a superb and fascinating tribute to an increasingly rare working environment. Michel Campeau lives and works in Montréal.". Seller Inventory # 109970
