One Day at a Time - Stephen Shore's Journal
Written by Guy Lane   
06 Aug 2008

© Stephen Shore Though Stephen Shore’s earliest black and white photographs were favourably received, his reputation was built on two bodies of work in colour - American Surfaces and Uncommon Places - assembled from pictures taken during a series of 1970s road trips across the United States.

An extraordinary third project from the era - Road Trip Journal - has languished largely unseen, until now. Like its predecessors, the Journal attests to Shore’s fascination with the banalities of popular culture and the idiosyncrasies of the vernacular.

Stephen Shore spoke to Guy Lane about his work, and desire to produce a distinctly impersonal diary. 

 
Fire Places - John Duncan in Belfast
Written by Guy Lane   
23 Jul 2008
© John Duncan John Duncan's photographs of loyalist community Eleventh night bonfires in Belfast are calculatedly void of drama, sensation and even flames. He spoke to Guy Lane about the persistence of old traditions in the new city; about news photography and gallery walls. And about why his pictures are not the work of a photojournalist.
 
School Photos - Vanessa Winship in Rural Turkey
Written by Guy Lane   
08 Jul 2008

©Vanessa Winship Vanessa Winship's photographs of schoolgirls in rural Turkey have been met with critical and curatorial acclaim. Resolutely low-tech and shot using a plate camera - or what she calls a "box with two holes" - the portraits mark an attempt to "strip down the photographic gymnastics" of photojournalism.

 

In the week the pictures go on show at Les Rencotres D'Arles, and see publication in book form, Winship spoke to Guy Lane about the project.
