Here Comes Everybody Summary

Here Comes Everybody: Chris Killip's Irish Photographs by Chris Killip

Here Comes Everybody is a phrase that echoes repeatedly through the shifting dream-narrative of James Joyces FinnegansWake. It aptly captures the intense poetry of this new collection of photographs by Chris Killip, taken over repeated trips to Ireland between 1993 and 2005. On each visit Killip attended the annual pilgrimages at Croagh Patrick and Mamean in the west of Ireland, places of wild beauty and ancient spirituality. His poignant photographs convey the dedication and community of the modern pilgrims journey as they make their way across shingled mountainsides to take part in age-old rites. Images of the pilgrims trek are complemented by landscapes, townscapes and details photographed in the west of Ireland and beyond. Presented as a facsimile of an album of prints from a decade of travels, this book includes the first colour photographs Killip has ever published. This Limited edition features hand-tipped reproductions and a signed and numbered print.

Here Comes Everybody Reviews

'A groundbreaking work that will become a touchstone for contemporary discussions about stillness and time that permeate not just photographic but philosophical discourse' - Foto8
'The pictures contain - and transmit to the viewer - a real enjoyment of the country and the people that inhabit it' - Guardian
'Peaceful and reflective' - Amateur Photography
'For some the landscape of postwar photography is unimaginable without his influence' - Photoworks
'Anarchic and provocative to the last, Killip is a true original and a genuine free thinker' - The British Journal of Photography
