Mark Neville lecture ~ London Trip
The third and final part of our trip to London involved us going to a talk by Mark Neville at the Whitechapel Gallery. I wasn't really aware of Mark Neville beforehand, but after a soaking walk in the London rain, I was really glad that I went. Not really because it was an opportunity to get dry, but because it proved to be an enthusiastic talk about some very interesting work.
Mark Neville spoke about three of his works, starting with The Jump Films (1996-2006). Then comprehensively speaking about The Port Glasgow Book Project (2004-2006). And finally, showing us images from his Fancy Pictures work. I recommend listening to an audio interview with Mark Neville about The Port Glasgow Book Project on the Hotshoe blog. There is also an interview, focusing on Fancy Pictures, with Mark Neville in the Autumn 2009 issue of Source Photographic Review.
Some of the Port Glasgow Book Project can be seen, along with the work of other photographers, at ParrWorld at the Baltic until 17th January 2010.
