One of three conceptually inventive photography books published simultaneously by the artist/photographer (the other two are "Hackney Flowers" and "Anonymous Origami"). "Stephen Gill has learned this: To haunt the places that haunt him. His photo-accumulations demonstrate a tender vision factored out of experience. Alert, watchful, not over-eager, 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. What I like about Stephen Gill is that he has learned to give us only as much as we need, the bones of the bones of the bones" (Iain Sinclair). Firmly grounded in the great British documentary tradition, Stephen Gill's photographs are honest, telling, and brilliant. His conceptual rigor and intelligence, unsentimental empathy for his subjects, and delicate use of color are astonishingly assured (that is, devoid of artistic vanity and self-indulgence) for a photographer who just started taking photographs (in his early 20's) and already has several published collections and one masterpiece (in his early 30's). The "object-in-relation-to-place" motif runs throughout Stephen Gill's oeuvre, and in this book, is especially moving. An absolute "must-have" title for Stephen Gill collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Edition of 3000 copies. It is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in pencil on the title page by Stephen Gill. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the Limited Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Although it is a Limited Edition, Gill did NOT sign most copies of the book. A scarce signed copy thus. 104 plates. Stephen Gill's "Hackney Wick" was selected as one of the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy.

Archaeology in Reverse Stephen Gill Signed by the Photographer \nAfterword by Iain Sinclair Afterword by Iain Sinclair \nStephen 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. \n114 pp / Hardback \n104 Colour Illustrations \n216mm x 216mm \nPublished by Nobody \nISBN 978-09549405-5-3. …
