Book + print signed. - Benny Profane is drawn from a long term engagement with a dockland district that Grant first knew as a labourer in his youth. Bound by a few square miles at the edge of the River Mersey, it dwells on the river's hinterland and, in particular, the vast expanse of the Bidston Moss [North West England], to become an immersion into one area and those who depended upon it. It is an involved and tender body of work, an account of kinship and defiance in a difficult land. The photographs in the book were taken between 1989 and 1997, and although few of these images were included in Reportage magazine in 1991, a majority are previously unpublished. - Fine copy
