Nigel Grierson’s book entitled ‘Photographs’ published by Dewi Lewis.

About

 

The book provides an overview of  Griersons’s work spanning many different periods and projects. The book avoids the rigours of chronology or any other  form of categorisation, in favour of a stream  of consciousness that finds its own  visual connections between the various  disparate elements.

Nigel Grierson studied photography and film at the Royal College of Art. He is perhaps best known for the album sleeves he photographed and designed for 4AD under the name 23 envelope in partnership with Vaughan Oliver.  These have been hailed by the likes of design historian, Catherine McDermot, and founder of Eye Magazine, Rick Poynor, as amongst the most important design of the eighties and early nineties. In 2000, after a successful career directing music videos  and  TV commercials in both  Europe and America,  Grierson  gave up commercial work to pursue his own photography full time. He has had one man shows in Japan and  the USA and  his work is in the collection of the V&A Museum
