With a decades-long career in photography and film, Brian Griffin is acknowledged as one of the greatest living UK photographers alongside Martin Parr, John Davies, and others. Primarily a portrait photographer, Brian has worked commercially for industrial companies, photographed many 80s UK music album covers, made many television adverts, and continues to push his photography in surreal and expertly crafted portraiture or social groups.

WORK is a seminal book in the history of photography. Highly acclaimed at the time of it's release, and still well loved today. The book features portraits of people at work in the 1980s - ranging from middle management to construction workers. Shot in black and white, every image is compelling.
