Described by Martin Parr as the 'quiet man of British Photography'; North by North East, is a comprehensive survey of renowned British photographer Ian Macdonald’s extensive career. The book delivers from a number of established and renowned projects whilst unveiling lesser-explored yet equally significant previously unpublished photographs.
The book spans the first twenty years of Macdonald’s photographic practice (1968-1989). His lens has followed the rise and decline of industry through the creation of an extensive archive of the region, creating a body of work that stands firmly within the tradition of British documentary photography that flourished in the late 1970s and 1980s — a period defined by political upheaval and social change.
