Beschreibung

First Edition. Oblong quarto. Published to coincide with the exhibition at Fundatión Botín, 7 of October, 2011 - 9 of January, 2012. "Europe-America is not a Paul Graham retrospective, but rather a juxtaposition of two classic series from the British photographer's career that encompass certain key themes permeating his oeuvre. Long out of print, New Europe (1986-1992) contrasted the optimism of an economically expanding Europe with the ongoing legacy of the continent's major conflicts, from the dictatorships of Franco and Hitler to the Irish conflict, and with the banalities of consumerism. Today, as Europe falters in the worldwide economic downturn, New Europe makes the recent past seem ancient history. The second series is A Shimmer of Possibility (2004-2006) which recorded telling signs of class disparity in Bush-era Americaâ from Boston to Pittsburgh to Texas.".
