Description
(Text)
Thirty years after the publication of the Isle of Man book I was in the process of preparing for my retrospective exhibition at the Museum Folkwang in Germany and started to re-examine my "Isle of Man" negatives. I hadn't had an occasion to think about this work since the first edition of the book was published. Going through these negatives again I found new images that I now liked, but at the time had overlooked or had not used for reasons that now mystify me. I ended up with 250 photographs that I now think of as my "Isle of Man" archive.
This new version of Isle of Man draws from that archive. The
photographs in this edition keep, more or less, to the same
order as the original book but I have changed some of the
images, added thirty others, and printed them all larger.
