'In Your Face', 128pp, cloth spine, 222mm x 160mm.
Paul Trevor’s extreme close-ups, made spontaneously on the streets of east London, capture Britain’s perennial social divide. They contrast the people in The City with those in the nearby market of Brick Lane. Shot during Thatcher’s reign, the imagery is as fresh and relevant today as it was then.
‘This series is a new twist on the street photo, but totally unlike anything I have seen before or since.’ – Martin Parr
Once Upon a Time in Brick Lane
'Once Upon a Time in Brick Lane', 144pp, cloth spine, 197mm x 256mm. Afterword by Alan Gilbey.
Paul Trevor, one of the great unsung heroes of British documentary photography, spent many years during the 70s and 80s capturing life on Brick Lane, London’s most iconic East End street. Published here for the very first time, these images, full of humour, grit, love and surprise, capture a vibrant time before the area went through dramatic social change.
Paul Trevor began to make pictures in his Brick Lane neighbourhood after abandoning his job as an accountant and deciding to become a photographer at the age of 25. His photographs have been exhibited internationally since the 1970s and are in public and private collections worldwide.
