Coinciding with Arnolfini’s major autumn exhibition Coming up for Air: Stephen Gill – A Retrospective (16 October 2021 to 16 January 2022), this enthralling publication encompasses over 40 years of practice (from 1982 to 2021), featuring some of Gill’s first photographs (taken as a child), and selected images from Gill’s best-known series, such as the award winning The Pillar, Talking to Ants and Hackney Flowers, alongside lesser-known collections, Invisible, Russian Women Smokers and Audio Portraits, and early images of Bristol, where Gill was born. Published by Gill’s Nobody Books in association with Arnolfini, the book includes a text from Arnolfini’s Director and self-confessed fan, Gary Topp, who reflects back on the fascinating process of working with Gill – underlining his abundant output showcased here across 604 pages – offering an absorbing insight into the artist’s working practice.
