Fish story - Allan sekula
Allan Sekula (1951–2013) was a renowned photographer, theorist, photography historian and critic. Since the early 1970s his work has challenged perceptions about the role of photography both as a visual art and as a documentary medium. Using photographs and slides in conjunction with text, Sekula’s work examines economic systems, trade, labour and globalisation. His projects derive from long periods of rigorous research inspired by contemporary politics
Fish Story – Chapter 8: Dismal Science 1989–92 is one of nine ‘chapters’ that make up the series Fish Story, which comprises still photographs, slide projections and a book. Sekula spent seven years photographing international harbours and port cities around the world. Starting out in Los Angeles he travelled as far as Britain, Poland and Korea. The series looks at the ocean as a key space of globalisation, exploring global maritime industry and its role in the worldwide distribution of commodities
Fish Story – Chapter 8: Dismal Science consists of 80 colour slides documenting places of transit, trade, consumption and dereliction in Tyneside and Glasgow, once the great ship-building cities of Britain. Presenting life among the ruins of an industrial waterfront, Sekula examines the ghosts of human labour and the obsolete capital of factories, warehouses and rusted machinery.

L,Atelier Populaire
L'Atelier Populaire - Revolutionary consciousness Built a revolution. Squatted art school, claimed print studios and set this up. Made prints and plastered them all over buildings and cars - designed to start the revolution. Possibilities of what the creative mind can do. (May '68 Student Posters). The police tried to shut it down - screen printed 'If police are going to kick us out, we'll take to the streets!' L'Atelier Populaire refuse to sell them, or exhibit them as that was not the purpose of them. Art and Design once was used by radicals.
