Résumé:
''Of Wu-Tang and things…I’d say off the bat it’s the Ol' dirty bastard, asking me to destroy the negatives, that will never leave me. Meth showing me his new trick with eye and cap. U-god with a plaster on his face. The Rza in a bath tub at the Met hotel. Watching the entire Wu-Tang Clan getting passport pictures at Earl Court station. The Shows. The distinct smell of blunts and weed that hung in the air. Papa Wu inviting me on the coach and traveling from Putney to Kentish Town with a pit stop in Earls Court. Young dirty Bastard’s performance of Shimmy Shimmy Ya Shimmy Yam Shimmy yah. From the first encounter to my last, the Wu have never failed to disappoint. What you have here a rarified glimpse at the lead images and contact sheets of seeking out members of the Wu-Tang Clan and putting their mythos on blast. I got one shot. This was the last time we held a cipher.'' -EO

Résumé:
''My pictures were part of an extended project on Hull, then suffering both the loss of its fishing industry and a programme of extensive redevelopment which appeared to be turning its back on the city's history and replacing areas which had been human and vibrant with depressing wastelands, failing to learn the lessons that were already apparent from elsewhere in the country. 'Still Occupied - A View of Hull' was shown at the Ferens Art Gallery in Hull in 1983, and the work here is from one of the eight sections of my self-published book and web site on Hull.'' - PM

Résumé:
''I used my first camera, an Asahi Pentax Spotmatic with 20-, 28-, 50-, 135- and 300mm Super Takumar lenses, until I bought a Leica M4 in 1971. From then on I used the Leica with 35- and 50mm Summicron lenses exclusively. I printed only very rarely and very little, and for the next forty-odd years I had these photographs, taken in 1968-77, only in the form of contact sheets. Thanks to digital, I saw them properly as 'enlargements' for the first time in 2012 after I had scanned the negatives and post-processed the files.'' - DN Dragan Novakovic is a Serbian photographer born in 1946. He bought his first camera in 1968 and taught himself to develop and print. He photographed London and Northern England, mostly as a hobby.

Résumé:
''In 1969 the Architectural Review invited guest editor Tim Rock to produce a few issues of the magazine. His brief was to take a hard look at the state of Britain, which must have come as a rude awakening for the readers of this conservative journal. I was lucky to receive the opening assignment for this ambitious project and spent the following six weeks recording the frustrations surrounding life, work and leisure in the Britain of the late 1960s. The result was a photo essay called 'Manplan' which ran for 75 pages in the magazine and from which these images are drawn. The project ran for several more issues, with other editorial photographers exploring more specific subjects for the project. However, I think it’s fair to surmise that the magazine, its readers, and its advertisers were relieved to return to the safer territory of architectural photography, with its correct verticals and its political correctness too!'' - PW

Résumé:
''This is Toronto 50 years ago, 52 years had passed since 1918, the end of the first World War and 1970 the first year of these pictures. And since the last of the photos were made in 1972, another 50 years have passed. The appearance of people has changed little, smoking is not as common, there were no computers. The cars and phones are greater visual cues. But it is a very different world we live in today.'' - TB Tony Bock is a British-born photographer who emigrated to Canada with his parents in 1952. His photographs provide a glimpse into the changing social and cultural fabric of Toronto during a time of significant transformation. Bock worked as photographer for the Toronto Star for over 30 years.

Résumé:
Sellafield, Europe's largest nuclear site, began being decommissioned in 2022. Its primary purpose was to produce weapons-grade plutonium for the UK's nuclear weapons programme, but they also generated electrical power for the National Grid from 1956-2003 and reprocessed nuclear fuel from 1952 to 2022. In 1985, Barry Lewis photographed part of the plant for The Sunday Times Magazine after reports found an increased incidence of leukaemia and non-Hodgkin lymphoma in children and young adults under 25 years of age living in Seascale, a village near Sellafield on the west coast of Cumbria. A government report suggested that these spikes were unlikely to have been caused by radiation exposure though the causes of these clusters of leukaemia around Sellafield was still not clear. 100Kg of plutonium had been pumped out of Sellafield into the Irish sea during the previous 40 years and 60Kg was unaccounted for. Any plutonium dust that is washed inshore, and when the tide goes out, could dry and blow inland. A single speck of plutonium inhaled is enough to trigger cancer. Sellafield is now a sprawling rubbish dump on the Cumbrian coast, with the world's largest store of plutonium that stores and treats decades of nuclear waste from atomic power generation and weapons programmes.The buildings are expected to be finally torn down by 2125 at a cost of approaching £100 billion and have its nuclear waste buried deep underground at a location still undecided.
