Trained as a fine artist, Richard Billingham took up photography
whilst an art student as a way to inspire his paintings. In 1996,
his book "Ray's a Laugh" brought him to the attention of the
photography and art worlds. The photographs focused on Ray,
Billingham's alcoholic father, and trod a delicate path between
voyeurism, social commentary, and intense self-exposure. Over
recent years, Billingham has photographed increasingly within the
landscape and this new book brings together this work for the first
time. The images are contemplative and thoughtful and reflect his
primary concern for the 'making' of an image. Billingham first
exhibited in 1995 at the Anthony Reynolds Gallery, London, who
still represent him. His work has received significant
international acclaim - in 1997 he won the Citibank Photography
Prize and his work was one of the talking points of 'Sensation',
the exhibition of Contemporary British Art from the Saatchi
Collection. He was shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 2001.
