Drawing on little-known and unpublished archive material, The Crisis Project makes available for the first time Terry Dennett's work from his ground-breaking, 37-year project to record the visual evidence for "a criminal trial against those who have presided over the despoliation and destruction of our society."
Terry Dennett (1938-2018), a socialist, and tirelessly active, sought new ways of understanding, seeing and changing the world through photography. He remains one the most influential figures in radical British photography, with an impact extending far beyond image-making - into publishing, exhibiting, teaching and shaping photographic theory. The Crisis Project forms part of a ground-breaking trilogy of books - alongside Terry Dennett & Jo Spence: Our Studio Was The World and Jo Spence: The Unknown Recordings - which explores their unpublished work, ideas and committed socialist perspective.
