<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In this new edition of <i>London</i>, including previously unpublished photographs and visual references, Sergio Larrain presents a powerful portrait of a city on the brink of a new era.</b><p> In the winter of 1958, Sergio Larrain traveled to London. He spent just a few months there, photographing subjects that interested him and embracing the shadows of the city. In the cold and damp, his images captured a tangible darkness in which he could "materialize that world of phantoms." A few years later, he joined Magnum Photos and set off around the world, before retiring to the Chilean countryside and leaving photography behind.<p> The book also features a text by the late Chilean writer Roberto Bolaño--written in 1999 specifically to accompany these images--as well as a new essay by Agnès Sire, artistic director of Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson, detailing Larrain's stay in London.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Larrain's London photographs transport us, not so much to a city at a specific point in history, but to the liminal state in which it might have been perceived." --Barry Schwabsky, <i>Bookforum</i> <p/> "Studying the photographs of Sergio Larrain, I feel the freshness of discovery, the childlike excitement of seeing something mundane and reminding myself that the commonplace, if regarded from an uncommon angle, can be marvelously strange and beautiful." --Arthur Lubow, <i>New York Times</i><br>
