September 19, 2015 Nick Waplington shared some of his photobooks with 10×10.
In 1991 Nick Waplington released the classic photobook Living Room, a project chronicling the lives of two working class families on the Broxtowe Estate, Nottingham (UK) where he had been visiting his grandfather since 1984. This exceptionally insightful work launched Nick into the photo world and he received much critical acclaim, including the ICP Infinity Award for Best Young Photographer in 1993. Now in 2015 Nick has chosen to revisit this material publishing a small edition with Little Big Man entitled “Living Room Work Prints” based upon the contents of a box of work prints used for editing the book in 1989/90. If you would like to find out more about this meaningful work then please join us for an artist talk with the man himself. The book will be available for purchase afterwards.
