Description
The photographs that Chris Killip made in Northern England
between 1973 and 1985 were first published by Secker &
Warburg in the book In Flagrante in 1988. The new oversized
Steidl edition is a radically updated presentation, showing a
single image on the right side of each double-page spread.
In Flagrante Two is strident in its belief in the primacy of the
photograph, embracing ambiguities and contradictions in an
unadorned narrative sequence devoid of text.
