Chris Killip

Abstract

Chris Killip (1946-2020) is one of the most influential British photographers of his generation. He is best known for his black and white images of people and places, especially in the North East of England in the 1970s and 1980s. This volume focuses on his remarkable Seacoal series, documenting a community at Lynemouth, where, as he put it, 'the Middle Ages and the twentieth century intertwined'. --Tate website.
