This book is part of the Images of England series, which uses old
photographs and archived images to show the history of various
local areas in England, through their streets, shops, pubs, and
people.
During the Covid 19 pandemic and the lockdown many artists were
thrown back on themselves and started to work creatively with this
unprecedented situation. Shortlist artists from all over the world
were asked by the Prix Pictet, the leading award for photography
and sustainability, and by British daily newspaper, The Guardian,
to show their works from the months of the Corona crisis. The
result, Confinement, a complex artistic and cultural portrait of
this state of emergency, will remain, when the pandemic itself is
history.
