His friend and fellow photographer Martin Parr described the work as "the key photobook about Britain since the war" and said of Killip, "Chris is without a doubt one of the key players in postwar British photography." Chris Killip is widely regarded as one of the most influential British photographers of his generation. Born in the Isle of Man in 1946, he began his career as a commercial photographer before turning to his own work in the late 1960s. His book, In Flagrante, a collection of photographs made in the North East of England during the 1970s and early 1980s, is now recognized as a landmark work of documentary photography. Other bodies of work include the series Isle of Man, Seacoal, Skinningrove and Pirelli. Goldblatt, David; Godby, Michael; Killip, Chris; Coetzee, J.

What drew you into this world?Killip co-founded and curated the Amber Collective’s Side Gallery in Newcastle for two years from 1977, and that’s how Martin Parr got to know him, “very impressed with the fact that all these photographers were getting grants and documenting that particular area of the North East.” The two remained friends for nearly half a century. He is survived by Mary, his son, Matthew, from a previous relationship with the Czech photographer Markéta Luskačová, his stepson, Joshua, two granddaughters, Millie and Celia, and a brother, Dermott. Thirty years after the publication of Isle of Man, Killip found himself reexamining the negatives from the series in preparation for an upcoming retrospective in Germany. "I hadn't had an occasion to think about this work since the first edition of the book was published," writes Killip. "Going through these negatives again I found new images that I now liked, but at the time had overlooked or had not used for reasons that now mystify me." These alternate Isle of Man images--some 250 in total--became what Killip terms his "Isle of Man archive." I was invited over, and they said 'try it for a year, and see if you like it', and I ended up staying in the job for nearly 30 years," he says today. The book: Pirelli Work.
