Author: Manning, MaryA comprehensive monograph on Mary Manning, 'Grace Is Like New Music' includes hundreds of images that span the last decade of their production and are arranged into multi-photographic compositions. Designed in collaboration with long-time friend Joe Gilmore, the book portrays Manning’s creative community in New York, London and elsewhere, and depicts subjects and sensibilities inspired by their interests in dance, film, fashion and poetry. Using a basic point-and-shoot camera, Manning captures people, nature, the street and everything in between. Their practice is an exercise in recording and collecting, an effort in 'paying attention as a practice of being alive'. The book includes an essay by writer Olivia Laing and a contribution by S*an D. Henry-Smith.ISBN 9780998523286. Canada. pb. 296 pages. 288 colour, 8 b/w ills. 32.4 x 23.5 cm.available
