Title: Not So "New Work"
Review: Jock Sturges' current book, entitled 'New Work' would be better entitled 'Latest Work'. There is nothing really new here apart from a small number of photographs in color. This is Sturges as we have come to know and admire him, although the work itself seems less inspired than previous efforts. The book however shows the total commitment of the publisher. It is wonderfully designed, the pages are in a VERY large format and the photographs are reproduced wonderfully with exceptional tonalities. Some of the problems with his earlier books with photos crossing the fold are absent here. Sturges deserves such treatment.
