The first volume in a series dedicated to the photographic work of Peter Christopherson, co-founder of the band Coil, documents the working-class neighbourhoods of the Gorbals district of Glasgow in the 1970s, a place marked by poverty, unemployment and violence yet home to a community as colourful and vibrant as any in the UK. In pubs, corner shops and bookies, and among young people playing on demolition sites, waste ground, abandoned cars and factories, Christopherson, in collaboration with the Citizens Theatre, captured the spirit of the area and its people. His photographs document everyday life not just as a struggle but as a celebration of it, a testament to his creative vision and a poignant record of a people and place long since passed.
