Description:
At the time of his death from leukaemia in 1972, aged 30, Tony Ray-Jones had already made an indelible mark on photography. This monograph introduces the best of his photographs - many previously unpublished - with original documents and artefacts from the National Museum of Photography's Ray-Jones archive.
This authoritative monograph reassesses the work and legacy of the great British photographer. It presents the best of Tony Ray-Jones' photographs, reproduced from revealing new prints, and illuminates his life and artistic development with a selection of original documents and artifacts. Edited and introduced by Russell Roberts, Senior Curator at the National Museum of Photography, Film & Television in the UK, this volume concludes with a conversation between two people whose careers were profoundly influenced by Ray-Jones and his work--the photographer Martin Parr and the writer and teacher Bill Jay.
