Description from the seller
Galjaard, David. Croncresco. Self-published by David Galjaard and Katie McGonigal, 2012. Softcover. Colour photographs printed in offset, text in English by Slavenka Drakulic and Jaap Scholten. Design by Katie McGonigal. Limited first edition of 750 copies.
Spine slightly dented, otherwise a very fine copy.
In Concresco, David Galjaard explores the social and symbolic significance of the numerous concrete bunkers built in Albania during the rule of dictator Ever Hoxha and the role they now play in the modern landscape. Hoxha, who was in power from 1944 to 1985, had approximately 750,000 bunkers constructed between 1967 and 1985 on the pretext of Albania needing to prepare for a possible attack from overseas, though ultimately, no actual conflict occurred. Concresco was awarded the Paris Photo Aperture Foundation First PhotoBook Award, 2012. The Photobook: A History III, p210.
